The Into Film Education Ambassadors are a group of distinguished educators from across the UK that provide advice, insights, and feedback that help shape the Into Film programme.

This core group of film-loving education experts meet at least three times a year in their respective regional groups to share opinions, best practice and engage in professional development opportunities. They are also advocates in promoting the value of film education and the Into Film offer amongst their peers and wider communities.

Our Education Ambassadors play a crucial role at Into Film by providing essential feedback, insights, and knowledge that drive and shape our programmes. They advocate for the importance of film in education and promote the Into Film offer among their peers and broader communities. Additionally, they have the opportunity to network and share best practices with fellow educators across the UK.
