Aim: To learn how to use more
accurate grid references.

 Share learning with your peers.


Why do we need more
accuracy?
Lets zoom in on one grid square…….
Lets try that without the

Six figure grid references
allow us to narrow down an
area of 1 square kilometre to
an area of 100 metres
squared. This means we
can be much more accurate.

To use six figures we must


divide the distance
between two grid lines into
ten equal sections.
