This autumn term, we are delivering some of our most popular training courses as live webinars, offering you a great way to compliment your planning for upcoming terms.

Our training webinars will give you the skills to use film as an innovative tool to access the curriculum, providing interactive and engaging ways to help your learners. Our webinars are interactive, meaning you can speak directly to our practitioners and also share knowledge with other teachers about how best to put your new skills into practice back in the classroom. After each training session, you'll also have access to a free downloadable PowerPoint presentation which includes film highlights and activities that you can run with your students.

Our sessions are running during September and October, and cover literacy and oracy, curricular filmmaking, editing, and screen careers.

In order to access these free webinars all you need to do is register for a free Into Film Account - it's completely free and only takes a moment to set up. If you already have an Account you'll just need to log in. Once you've signed up/logged in, you'll be able to book the free webinars below, and you'll also have access to hundreds of classroom-ready resources, further helping you embed your learnings from the session into your teaching.

The clips were really diverse and appealing to the students and myself. The resources and activities were really excellent. Super informative and helpful.
