One in five schoolchildren is unable to find the United Kingdom on a map of the world, research has revealed.
One in ten cannot name a single continent and more than 20,000 children in London do not realise they live in England's capital city.
Education experts described the findings as "rather frightening", saying schools must concentrate on the basics in geography lessons.
The subject is a compulsory part of the National Curriculum for five to 14-year-olds.
