Gloucestershire Young Photographer Competition 2025
We were delighted to receive 1114 individual entries from a total of 68 schools. May we thank all School Representatives and other staff who have undertaken all the entering and uploading of entries for their pupils.
The Competition, now in its 21th year, was open to pupils in Primary and Secondary Schools in Gloucestershire. Each pupil was able to submit just one titled digital image each, on any subject.
Judging took place in late March, and all schools that entered were informed of their accepted and award-winning entries. The Award winners were invited to the Presentation and Awards Evening at the Cheltenham Playhouse on Tuesday 29th April. Unfortunately, due to the limited space available at the Playhouse, only the award winners could be invited. However, in due course, the Audio-Visual Presentation that was shown will be made available to all Schools that entered. This includes all the entries that were selected at the Judging. You can view below, the winning images selected entries from ‘Best Schools’
Cups and certificates were awarded for the OVERALL BEST SCHOOL ENTRY in each section as follows –
Best Small School entry was Southrop CofE Primary
Runner-Up Primary was Cheltenham College Prep School
Winner Primary was St Mark’s CofE Junior School for second year running
Runner-Up Secondary was Wycliffe College
