I did my video course some years ago at an evening institute that took place in a local school and was essentially run by the local council/education authority. It was pretty cheap as I remember and lasted for around ten weeks.

If you check out your library it ought to be able to give you the range of courses and prices from last year - this year will start in september as they mirror the school year. You can see what the technical courses are charged at, but as I understand the system the tutor is paid by the council/EA, so it will not necessarily reflect the cost of the course per pupil multiplied by the number of students.

You can also check out the prices for private courses that are advertised in the photo mags - but don't forget some of these also cover shoots outside the venue too.

Maybe a half day seminar type of thing will be an alternative. If that is a success, you can offer modules that are more specialised later.
