Paul Carroll Photography is delighted to announce a new collaboration with Rushcliffe School in West Bridgford, Nottingham. It’s exciting times for Rushcliffe who are an academy school specialising in Science. Not only have they been awarded Outstanding in their latest Ofsted report, the Local Authority has also asked them to sponsor Farnborough, a Nottingham City school, during its transition to an academy. This follows Rushcliffe’s successful sponsorship of Eastwood School in the last academic year and will see Rushcliffe’s current head Mr Crompton become Executive Head overseeing both schools.
So lots of exciting photo opportunities across both schools in store and to kick it off this month we photographed Rushcliffe’s performance of Fame the Musical. With the casting open to all pupils there was a diverse range of ages and talents amongst the cast of around 30, who had obviously put in a great deal of effort in rehearsals before entertaining friends, parents and staff over two nights. So not to intimidate the budding thespians, or block the view of the audience, our approach was very much unobtrusive long lens photography from the back of the hall. With a great backdrop painted by art students and good stage lighting to boot we were able to get some fantastic results, which the school are excited about displaying.
Look out for more updates about our collaboration with Rushcliffe as the year develops.
