Default Hi from Dawn in Cambridgeshire

hello,
I don't know why its taken me so long to find a forum like this.
I have always drawn, painted, loved art, somehow I find myself working in a college in Cambridgeshire teaching photography full time to 80 students, years 10-13.
My department has been chosen by Edexel as an exemplar center of photography, we have a small darkroom, 10 enlargers, our GCSE course is 95% darkroom based, students develop their own films, I have been here around eight years, at the start there were two classes, now I have seven
I am self taught, technically my knowledge is somewhat limited, but I muddle through, often things don't work, break down, go wrong, it can be very frustrating as I have nobody to ask for help, it would be great to get some advice from other darkroom users.
best wishes Dawn.

Welcome Dawn , I am sure you will find FADU informative and friendly. Members are very willing to pass on their knowledge, its good to hear that young people are learning traditional techniques.

Welcome Dawn. It is great too see that such courses are still run and even better to see how much yours has expanded. You are certainly doing something right.

As others have said "Ask away" I am sure we can help

Mike
