This resource looks at the issues surrounding coastal management and raises a number of questions: Why is it needed? What can be done? and Why is it controversial? This is a KS3 resource but could be used to help KS4 students review their prior knowledge of coastal management issues.

Students discuss why the coastline needs protecting at all, they consider residents, tourists and the natural habitiats. They then look at hard and soft managment techniques and complete a card sort style task. Finally students consider the points of view of four different groups and their opinions on coastal management in order to understand that conflicts arise easily when different opinions are involved.
