Well, that's four lessons we've had on Tourism in LEDCs, having covered Kenya (mass tourism) and Zimbabwe (Green tourism). There will be no more 'conventional' lessons again this year because each lesson will be focusing on coursework.
Hoping for a good few days of weather in the Lakes, and with a bit of luck for it to go on into next week when we are in Saltburn and Yarm. Mind you, you only need to say the words 'Geography fieldtrip' and it is a sure guarantee of rain. There we are - those two words could be a solution to the world's drought problems!
This topic of Tourism is frequently examined on Paper 2 of the real exam.
If you click below you'll notice on p23 there is a question where you could easily talk about Kenya. But look carefully at the wording of the question. Environment - in the past, students focused on why the country would attract people, rather than on what is attractive about the environment to people from places in Western Europe (i.e. - UK)

Finally, whilst general surfing myself I stumbled across this really impressive video on the advantages and disadvantages of tourism to Kenya, by students in Year 10 at another school in Bury. Very impressive, as I'm sure you'll agree, so a big thank you to them...
