Photography with Shelley has been one of the gems of our TY programme. Year after year Shelly introduces our students to this art form. The photos produced by our students have found their way into many book/magazines and many adorn the walls of our school corridors. It is incredible the standard to which Shelly takes our young photographers after such a short space of time. And Shelly does all this with the most respectful, dignified, inspiring manner. A true professional of her art form and in her manner of working with young people!

Our students have enjoyed all aspects of the photography course and have gained valuable experiences. Thanks to Shelley for everything!

Shelley is an excellent photography teacher. She is creative and innovative; she makes her lessons fun, memorable and educational while motivating and engaging with her students. She transfers her love of photography to all the students in her care and her teaching approach boosts students’ confidence as her practical lessons can be immediately used in their everyday lives. Shelley’s energy and great ideas are inspirational and as a school we are lucky to have her as a Transition Year tutor for many years.
