The build up to the Olympics in 2012 to be hosted in London should provide an excellent hook to engage Key Stage 3 students with many geographical themes on a range of scales. From ‘personal geographies’ of how young people regard the Olympics in relation to their own sporting avtivites and the spaces they frequent for exercise and sport, through to social, economic and environmental regeneration at a local, regional and national scale and the role of the Games in selling London the place as a ‘World City’ and the increasing interdependence of the local, regional, and national on this global scale.
