Gallery of Greats

The exhibition entitled ‘The Gallery of Greats’ was created by the charity The Teaching Awards Trust to celebrate its 25th anniversary. It is being delivered in collaboration with photographer and part-time teacher, Donna Bridgewater, and Pearson, the world’s leading learning company. The exhibition will took place at All is Joy Gallery, London for one day only.

Since taking the helm in 2017, Farhan has kindled a love of learning among the 1,500 students at this inner-city school. His values-driven leadership transformed the school into a beacon of opportunity, where attainment and aspiration are central to the students learning and life experiences. He has made it his mission to change the lives and extend opportunities for everyone in the school community, living the school’s motto of ‘aspiration, commitment, success’. He was applauded for his ability to empower students in his school.

Each portrait captures educators in their natural environments, highlighting their dedication and passion for shaping the lives of young people. Farhan is showcased with four of his students, with the school’s motto seen in the background.

The striking collection tells the story of 10 inspiring educators from across the UK, all of whom have been shortlisted to win one of just 16 Gold Awards at this year’s Pearson National Teaching Awards.
