I am sorry but it is hillarious to read of a school that has blocked
creative commons images. In this day and age, this is a very uninformed
position for a secondary school to take. It reminds me of a school in the
Melbourne burbs that insisted that the principal should read every outbound
email to check for spelling mistakes. Can you gently enquire what the
justification is for this?
