Working With Photographers and Contemporary Photography
We have a strong track record of school engagement. Get in touch if you would like us to work with you to co-produce artist-led programmes for your students that enrich or support curriculum delivery. We can combine this with professional development opportunities for teachers.
Our programmes link to school improvement priorities such as progress and attainment, or support teaching and learning in specific topics or subject areas. We work across the primary and secondary curriculum, often with departments such as History, Science and English as well as the Art department.
Activities might include:
- Practical photography workshops in a classroom setting led by an artist/photographer. All equipment including digital cameras and printers supplied.
- Artist talks
- Careers inspiration & awareness activities
- Facilitated exhibition visits with simple, practical photography activities (dependent on exhibition availability)
