 Coaches should co-operate fully with other specialists (e.g. other coaches, officials, sport scientists,

Use of video and photography
The Local Organising Committee recognises concerns regarding the use, and potential abuse, of images of
children and young people taking part in physical and creative activities.
In order to protect children, and re-assure parents, the Local Organising Committee will implement the following
procedures at the GREATER MANCHESTER SCHOOL GAMES 2015:

The consent of participants and their parents will be sought in advance for the taking and subsequent
potential publication of still or video photography via team entry information.

Information boards will display the requirement for people intending to capture images for publication to
register and receive photographic consent guidelines and listings.

The rules that are in place at each individual centre will be the minimum accepted practice that will be in
force at each site.
Key elements of these procedures will include:

A requirement to register with the event organiser on the day for press accreditation and equipment
registration (see procedure below).

Respecting the wishes of those young people who may not wish their photograph to be taken under any
circumstances.

Where consent has been given by a young person and their parent/guardian, this shall include consent to
print the child’s name and a designation of the Borough which the young person is representing. No
additional detail should be printed without additional specific consent.

Never taking any individual young person(s) away from the main public places at the event for the
purposes of photography unless they are chaperoned by an event official (or parent or other adult in loco
parentis) at all times.

If a young person becomes the subject of a particularly newsworthy story due to an outstanding
performance, we will ask that any reporter liaises with the parents of the young person, if present, or the
young person’s coach or team leader to pursue the story.
School Games Camera Registration Process

camera/ mobile/ video recorder registers their device at one of the following camera registration points. Official
