Media Policy

Photography and Videography

Occasionally, we will take photographs of the children at our school. We use these images as part of our school displays and in other printed publications. We will also use them on our school website and social media pages.

From time to time, our school may be visited by the media who will take photographs or film footage of a high profile event. Children may appear in these images, which will sometimes be published in local newspapers or news sites.

We will endeavour to obtain verbal consent before photographing all children and adults on campus.

At any time, at the request of a parent or a student we will remove unwanted photography or videos.

If you have media stories you would like us to share about a current or former Somersfield student please reach out to us at marketing@somersfield.bm

Conditions of use

We will not re-use any photographs or recordings a year after your child leaves this school. Historic photographs will remain on our school website and social media feeds.

We will only use images of pupils who are suitably dressed, to reduce the risk of such images being used inappropriately.

Websites and social media platforms can be viewed throughout the world and not just in the Bermuda where Bermudian law apply.
