Abstract	What do primary school children think about the world? Do they know the world at all? Talking about "sustainable development" in primary school education should lead us to several questions concerning the perceptions and competencies of children. Why do some draw the world as an "island picture" or a "situation representation" while others are able to draw a detailed world map with numerous geographical information? Can primary school children understand the structure of the wide world without having direct and real experiences? By which age will it make sense to talk about foreign countries and the world in school? How can we enable children to have a more accurate and durable frame of reference for developing store of location. How can we enable them to understand the meaning of "sustainable development". The requirements for a Primary Geography Model for the 21st Century presented in this paper are based on the results of an actual study on children perceptions about the world. The paper discusses the implications of a global dimension into the learning and teaching of Primary School Geography for the creation of a learning environment, which supports the sustainable development of children's spatial representation and perception.
