Premiere Learning Programmes
We have an innovative range of Premiere learning programmes which integrate practical hands on problem solving with optics at its core. These programmes have been designed to take students on a journey of discovery to provide a valuable foundation in optics and how it can be translated into a number of evolving industries.
Our Premiere programmes have been designed to incorporate the technology known as adaptive learning. This is an educational method which uses computers, mobiles, iPhones, iPads and tablets as an interactive teaching device, and to provide tailored resources according to the unique needs of each learner.
Individualised Adaptive Learning
The development of adaptive content means that we are helping schools to deliver appropriate curriculum and services for each individual student. And as our innovative and relevant programmes are delivered in local settings, we are all able to gain and share insights to individual and aggregated learning paths and best practices. We are working creatively to devise innovative solutions that help you improve outcomes, add value and meet the expectations of today’s students.
We embrace the increasingly data-driven culture within education and provide products and services that make a difference and keep students on track to achieving their goals. Our international reach identifies emerging educational markets and is building previously unknown relationships. Our intention is to promote global collaboration.
Mobile Solutions
We are developing our programmes to be to deliverable on any device. We aim to provide highly engaging mobile experiences. We understand that improving outcomes is top of mind for primary and secondary schools worldwide. With solutions designed for the modern learning environment, we work in partnership with you to achieve the personalised experience students expect, and help your students reach their academic goals.
All programmes have been designed for students aged 7 to 11 years.
Our Premiere Programmes link with evolving industries and reflect STEM subjects in the current National Curriculum. We are preparing students anywhere in the world for admissions success by guiding them to their highest possible admission test scores. Our approach is integrating creative and visual topic applications together with STEM subjects.
We are:
- Celebrating the diversity of multi-talented young people
- Promoting active and experiential learning
- Encouraging, engaging and motivating learners
- Developing skills for learning, skills for employment, skills for life
- Rewarding a range of learning styles and contexts
- Making learning relevant and transferable

Preparation for GCSE Photography Programme
Workshops are designed to prepare students for their GCSE creative arts studies enabling them to fully engage with their photography modules by being competent DSLR camera operators. The workshops are delivered in a highly practical way and cover every aspect of photography from how to hold a camera through to specialised photography techniques. There are dedicated workshops focusing on portraits, landscapes and architecture and still life work. There are lots of individual and group projects to practise effective use of props, controlling light and a range of camera techniques.
Visual Technologies
More than ever before, it is the SME’s (Small and Medium-sized Enterprises) who are driving advances in technology and due to the scale of their operations, are demanding an ever increasing range of skills from their employees.
Imaging Partnership will use the expertise of additional consultants who are specialists in areas concerning optical engineering to produce a set of primary and secondary school based workshops that bring together the skillsets of creative arts with medical healthcare, medical technology, consumer based optics and engineering.
Innovation in Photography (separate programme for Primary)
We use photography and visual media to bring these topics to life in a fun and engaging way. Visual media is accessible to a wide range of pupils and allows them to express themselves at a level that suits their personal abilities.
