  • YAFTA-Film-TV-Production-Diploma
    1 The YAFTA Film & Television Production Diploma course is a one year, part time, blended learning course. The diploma has been designed for those with little or no experience of film & TV production, who wish to develop the technical skills required to produce content for film & television. This intensive training course will equip students with the necessary technical knowledge and skills to start gaining work experience in the industry. This is the first course of its kind to be run in the North of the UK and offers the potential for those who wish to pursue a career in film & television production, the opportunity to do so. Unlike traditional University or college courses, YAFTA’s diploma focuses technical, practical, circumstantial and realistic aspects of working in the film and TV industry. This understanding and appreciation of the industry, in addition to excellent technical ability for their chosen role in production, is vital if students are going to go on to have a successful career. 2 3 COURSE OBJECTIVE The main objective of the YAFTA Film & TV Production Diploma is to give students an overall understanding of film & TV production, teaching students about the different roles that they can undertake in production and giving them the opportunity to undertake these roles for themselves. We aim to produce students who not only possess excellent technical ability but that also have a clear understanding of the realities of working in the film & TV industry. COURSE AIMS YAFTA’s Film & TV Production Diploma course aims to equip students with the practical and technical knowledge and skills to work in Film & TV production, as well as teaching students about the routes into the industry and how to start gaining work.

  • Educating Young People on Islamophobia
    Resource for Educators Resource FAITH IN US Educating young people on Islamophobia Faith in Us: Educating Young People about Islamophobia Introduction This resource has been designed for both primary and secondary teachers for use in the classroom to work with young people and educate about Islamophobia. The resource provides background information outlining the reality and impact of Islamophobia on both young people and wider society; starting points to help educators to ensure that they are creating the right environment for the work to take place; and activities for educators to run with young people. The activities have been developed in partnership with young people and tested in classrooms throughout the UK. The resource also provides guidance as to the steps that schools can take to help young people report incidences of Islamophobia and respond appropriately to both perpetrators and targets, in order to create settings where all young people feel safe and able to achieve. The aims of this resource are to: • Outline the moral and statutory duties on schools to engage in work on Islamophobia • Share good practice approaches and activities to educate young people about Islamophobia • Support schools to respond effectively to incidents of Islamophobia • Provide links to further sources of information and support This resource is not intended to provide a comprehensive overview of the religion of Islam. There are many good resources and organisations which provide this in line with the RE curriculum. We have provided links to some of these at the end of the resource. This resource was produced in partnership with young people in Tower Hamlets as part of EqualiTeach’s Agents for Change: Islamophobia programme which ran from October 2017- May 2018 and was funded by the Home Office Hate Crime Communities Project Fund.

This certainly is a miscellany. Retrieved 26 February Archived from the original on 14 March Given that GE and Apple were unlikely to start sponsoring U. In February , a panel of 46 broadcasting industry experts, of which 42 had a professional connection to the BBC, listed The Archers as the second-greatest radio programme of all time. Stefano added it May 03, When John Archer died no music was played. Music artist and CCM pioneer Erick Nelson defined The Archers' role in the development of contemporary Christian music as representing one- half of a convergence: traditional vocal groups like The Archers got hipper while the hippie rock groups like the Maranatha bands got more mellow —eventually both evinced the polished, commercial sound that would be identified as stereotypical contemporary Christian music. Retrieved 28 June Since Easter Sunday , there have been six episodes a week, from Sunday to Friday, broadcast at around following the news summary. Historians note an exception: China, where archers were so highly skilled and well equipped that they continued to prove useful in battling nomads on the open steppe. The history of the different families and the homes was useful. An elite archer does not grip her bow tightly, fearing what anxious jitters might do; she attaches it to a string that wraps around her hand, extends her arm forward, and holds the bow in place with the skin between her thumb and index finger.

    REGISTER OF INTERESTS OF MEMBERS’ SECRETARIES AND RESEARCH ASSISTANTS (As at 15 October 2020) INTRODUCTION Purpose and Form of the Register In accordance with Resolutions made by the House of Commons on 17 December 1985 and 28 June 1993, holders of photo-identity passes as Members’ secretaries or research assistants are in essence required to register: ‘Any occupation or employment for which you receive over £410 from the same source in the course of a calendar year, if that occupation or employment is in any way advantaged by the privileged access to Parliament afforded by your pass. Any gift (eg jewellery) or benefit (eg hospitality, services) that you receive, if the gift or benefit in any way relates to or arises from your work in Parliament and its value exceeds £410 in the course of a calendar year.’ In Section 1 of the Register entries are listed alphabetically according to the staff member’s surname. Section 2 contains exactly the same information but entries are instead listed according to the sponsoring Member’s name. Administration and Inspection of the Register The Register is compiled and maintained by the Office of the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards. Anyone whose details are entered on the Register is required to notify that office of any change in their registrable interests within 28 days of such a change arising. An updated edition of the Register is published approximately every 6 weeks when the House is sitting. Changes to the rules governing the Register are determined by the Committee on Standards in the House of Commons, although where such changes are substantial they are put by the Committee to the House for approval before being implemented.
