In a geocentric solar system model, earth is in the center, and all of the planets and then sun orbit around it. Geo= Earth Centric= Center
A geocentric model of the solar system. Which is incorrect.
Such principle of belief that earth is the centre of the solar system is geocentrism. The model is called a Geocentric model.
Nicolaus Copernicus was the astronomer to challenge the geocentric model of the solar system.
This would be known as a geocentric model, and it is pretty easy to show why such a model is unlikely.
Heliocentric was thought to believe that the sun was at the center of the solar system and that the planets revolved around the Sun. Geocentric was thought to believe that the earth was the center of the solar system and that the planets revolved around the earth. We now know that our solar system is centered around the sun and is heliocentric.

Earth is at the center of the solar system.
It is the geocentric model.
Geocentric model. This has earth at the centre. We now know this not to be true.
The heliocentric model is sun-centered. The geocentric model is earth-centered.

"geocentric"
geocentric model, where the sun and other planets orbited the Earth.
Heliocentric was thought to believe that the sun was at the center of the solar system and that the planets revolved around the Sun. Geocentric was thought to believe that the earth was the center of the solar system and that the planets revolved around the earth. We now know that our solar system is centered around the sun and is heliocentric.
