Introducing an Exciting Photography & Enrichment Program for Schools

I’m John Alderson, an Award Winning Photographer and qualified teacher with eight years of experience in further education, and I’m launching an exciting new photography and enrichment program designed for students from junior to secondary school.

Photography is more than just taking pictures—it’s a powerful tool for creativity, storytelling, confidence-building, and self-expression. My new program offers engaging 3-hour workshops where students will explore the art of photography using mobile phones or basic cameras, making it accessible and affordable for schools.

Why Photography?

📷 Encourages Creativity – Students learn to see the world differently and express themselves visually.
📷 Supports Curriculum Goals – Complements Art, ICT, Media, and English through visual storytelling and composition.
📷 Builds Confidence & Communication Skills – Encourages independent thinking and teamwork.
📷 Promotes Digital Literacy – Helps students understand image-making in the digital world.

Why Work With Me?

With a strong background in both education and photography, I understand how to engage young learners while maintaining a structured, fun, and safe learning environment. I hold full training in Safeguarding, British Values, Prevent, Health and Safety, and Fire Safety, ensuring that all sessions meet educational and welfare standards.

What I Offer to Schools:

✔ Tailored sessions to suit different age groups and abilities
✔ Flexible scheduling – Ideal for enrichment days, after-school clubs, or curriculum-linked workshops
✔ Hands-on learning with practical activities and creative challenges
✔ Competitive pricing to ensure accessibility for all schools

This program is perfect for schools looking to enhance their creative curriculum, boost engagement, or provide a fresh and inspiring learning experience for their students.

I’d love the opportunity to discuss how this could fit into your school’s enrichment program. Let’s work together to inspire the next generation of young photographers!
