Film and Youth Work

We can now offer Agored Cymru accredited training in Film and Youth Work. This two-day course (3 credits at Level 2) covers principles of film education, filmmaking (planning, filming and editing), resources, project ideas and teaching techniques. We can deliver this in English or Welsh anywhere in Wales, and follow-up courses are also available.

FFILMSCHOOL PLUS

Ffilmschool Plus is an affordable new CPD programme for Primary and Secondary schools in Wales. It will show how you can use film and media to engage and motivate children and develop oracy, reading and writing skills. Ffilmschool Plus can also facilitate and enhance professional learning communities.

Training

We provide training around Wales and beyond for teachers, youth and community workers and others. Our training programme covers using and teaching with film and media, film-making, and training in using specific creative software.

Primary and transition

Several of our projects and workshops have focused on Primary and transition. Ffilmschool 2, our year-long project in Neath Port Talbot, demonstrated how non-narrative film and film-making can support speaking and listening, groupwork and writing skills in Years 6 and 7.
