Academy Venue Photography planned around safeguarding

The visits we run for venue photography on a school follow a repeatable sequence, tightened by hundreds of previous shoots. School photography runs to a safeguarding standard: an agreed photo-permission list, a named staff escort and a shot list that can be delivered inside a single timetabled block.
