Photography
Our Curriculum Intent
In the Photography department we will bring out the best in our students by empowering them to work independently through teaching them the skills they need in order to handle DSLR cameras and manipulate images using traditional and digital methods. Students will be taught how to reflect on their own work and the work of other practitioners and make appropriate links. Students will be encouraged to draw inspiration from known photographers and use their own experiences to develop their personal investigations.
