Once again we are pleased to welcome DofE students to Click. We've been teaching and assessing young photographers for the DofE since 2013 and Click Photography Workshops is the longest established provider of face to face photography tuition for children and teenagers in the UK: working in schools, and afterschool and weekend clubs.
Based in West London, we teach from Year 5 to A Level. Our teachers are award winning editorial photographers with clients as varied as Vogue, Channel 4, O2, and The Telegraph & Guardian newspaper groups
All Click courses are designed to get students out and shooting immediately. We do care about technique and we teach darkroom and complex Dslr skills as well as advanced Photoshop for our A level students - but what matters most for our DofE students
is imagination and self-expression.
Modern cameras and smartphones make it possible for the young photographer to start shooting straight away and we embrace this.

This has been a wonderful experience full of opportunity to experiment as well as to display my own character and creativity. I'd definitely recommend this course for anyone interested in getting started with photography or who is looking to further develop their skills.. I will take a lot away from this as I continue my photography !

Students access a dedicated DofE space on the Click website to find self contained lessons covering composition, editing, and a variety of themes.
Over 3 months they follow this remote pathway before submitting a portfolio of 20 images for assessment.
Click tutors provide feedback and complete the DofE Assessors report that signs students off. It's a little cheaper and designed for students who may find difficulty attending the 3 Saturday morning zoom sessions. The tutorials, however, are exactly the same.

Online DofE Photography
During the pandemic our DofE provision moved online and we discovered that in many ways teaching via zoom over a prolongued 3 or 6 month period improved the courses we were able to offer and worked really well for our students
As the pandemic eases we are back to face to face for a few students but still believe that the online course is
a brilliant way to learn photography.
Our 12 or 24 week online courses are supported by 3 or 6 live zooms, an extensive array of tutorials and dedicated individual galleries of student images. The entirely remote course is supported by a dedicated section of the website which students access each week
for their assignments.
Our students documented their lives in Lockdown and now their world is opening up again. Photographers are very lucky to have a passion that is helping them make sense of these strange days.
Our horizons may have shrunk a little but our imaginations are as free as they ever were.
