We’re delighted to host two free of charge CPD Teacher workshops  in collaboration with the Tees Valley Combined Authority (TVCA).

These practical sessions are designed to support classroom teaching and curriculum development in photography and digital media. Teachers that are based within the Tees Valley are welcome to attend either session individually or both for a complete learning experience. Teachers are encouraged to book early to secure a limited space on these hands-on creative workshops.

Sessions will take place at our The Northern School of Art, Middlesbrough Campus on Newport Road.
Cost: Free of charge and includes refreshments and CPD Certificate of Completion!
Places are very limited – first come, first served.
