Abstract

The number of students electing to study Stage 6 Geography in New South Wales has been declining since the early 1990s. In 1990, just over 15,000 students elected to study Geography for the Higher School Certificate. By 1995 enrolments had dropped by 34 per cent to 10,000 and by 2000, the number was down to just under 8,000.
