Appendix 6 – 21st Century Literacy Case Study: Cine Hub and Kibworth Primary

Pilot project integrating film into schools across the East Midlands

Attainment

The school chose to integrate the project into the Year 5 curriculum, particularly in Literacy with a focus on narrative and storytelling, but then quickly discovered that the project encompassed many other areas of the curriculum. Year 2 students made a black and white film to support the French curriculum with all dialogue entirely in French. The film - La Dent Tremblante – which Film: 21st Century Literacy has exhibited at events across the UK, can be viewed on Youtube at: www.youtube.com/watch?v=94pMA_R4d2o&feature=channel_video_title

The project had an enormous impact, and contributed significantly to the Ofsted report in September 2010 that raised the school from satisfactory to outstanding: “Cross-curricular topic themes are always relevant to the pupils because they are asked what they want to learn and how. This is perhaps seen at its best through the Cine Hubs project, which sees pupils writing and producing high quality films in a range of genres.” Ofsted Inspection Report, September 2010

The Cine Hub programme in the East Midlands piloted a consortium approach to developing film education across eight Local Authorities:Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire, Rutland,Leicestershire, Leicester City, Northamptonshire and Derbyshire (.Teachers and children from schools selected by the Local Authorities were invited to:

• participate in a series of training events for teachers • visit cinema venues • host a resident filmmaker within the school to train the students to produce film content benefiting the curriculum and schools

The schools then shared their work with other participating schools in the spirit of critical friends. The Cine Hub School in Leicestershire – Kibworth Primary – has become a leader of film in primary education across the county. Kibworth is a large village school that has been judged as outstanding in the 2010 Ofsted inspection report. The project was led by Headmaster Paul Stone and assisted by filmmaker Steve Friendship. Kibworth then shared the knowledge with two other primary schools (Farndon Fields Primary and Meadowdale Primary) in Market Harborough to help them make films.

Students’ behaviour Teachers report that the children have benefited significantly from the project, citing a rise in writing, language and communication skills and a huge impact upon emotional wellbeing, pointing to children who have discovered new talents and overcome shyness.

“I thought that filmmaking helped me to know how a film works and to understand how to work the camera,sound and other things. I hope that everyone can enjoy filmmaking as we did and I would like to do it again. Also I would like to thank Steve Friendship for helping us on this hard task and making us laugh and have lots of fun.” Student at Kibworth Primary

“I thought Cine Hub was a great idea and I hope other children get to have the same opportunity.” Student at Kibworth Primary

$ whI . C  9  w   {  { W 
 Teachers’ pedagogic practice Kibworth Primary offered four days of CPD to partner schools, training six teachers. Teachers’ ICT skills have improved tremendously, and they valued the opportunity to use film as part of the curriculum to make teaching more exciting. These new skills have given teachers kudos among parents, and more and more teachers wanted to be involved in the project.

Parents’ view Parents and teachers at Kibworth are all enthusiastic about the project and have come to expect the children to be making a film as part of the curriculum. Senior Management Team’s view The success of the initiative has arisen through three Head Teachers who are close to colleagues, share similar interests, and believe in the importance of film education in their schools.

Long-term legacy Kibworth Primary school aims to develop the use of film further across the curriculum The project has benefited the local area: Year 4 pupils made documentaries, including one about wild life in the village, and Year 6 made advertising videos for local building projects The project led to a mutually beneficial relationship between the school and its local Media Centre/Cinema Phoenix Arts in Leicester, using the venue to host a parents/governors screening of their productions and hold a Market Harborough film festival that showcased the films they made. Eighty people from the three schools attended Other teachers in East Midlands are also due to benefit from Kibworth’s enthusiasm for film: Kibworth is a recognised centre to validate CPD training, linked to the General Teaching Council. Nineteen schools in the East Midlands Cine Hub project can gain accreditation for their CPD activities, earning credits towards a Masters Degree

Summary of the benefits of using film in education Can be integrated into a wide range of subjects in the curriculum, including English, ICT, and Foreign Languages Improves standards of writing, language and communications skills Raises achievement of students and the school Creates enthusiasm for learning among students, teachers and parents Shares excellent pedagogic practices across schools in the region Contributes positively to local communities Still from A Wobbly Tooth ©Kibworth Primary

 Appendix 8 – Consultation Responses from ROH Event

ROH BRIDGE ‘EDUCATION THROUGH A LENS’ Consultation Questions and Responses

What are the top challenges that film education faces? • Giving teachers the confidence to use film across the curriculum. • Advocacy to energise young people. • Technology barriers and the need to up skill teachers in new technology. • Deconstruct to make less daunting and affordable – relates to both kit and training. • Hearts and minds to win in senior management of schools about the effectiveness of film. Need to have specific examples of value and impact to achieve this. • The need to have strong advocates in schools for film to inspire others in use and possibility. A film ambassador. • Advocacy with teachers and advocacy on behalf of teachers to support film education engagement. • Gap in kit whereabouts and accessibility to kit when people actually need to use it (out of school hours). Kit in Cupboards – good kit does not mean good practice – often kit is locked away and not used or maintained. • Future proofing equipment. • Access to professional Skills. • Need kit advice in choosing the correct kit/ possibility that the kit schools have purchased not industry compatible. • Due to budgetary constraints, cash needed to pay for teachers’ time for training; also the problems of teachers finding enough time and the schools having a space to realise how efficient film can be delivering across the curriculum. • Very difficult for secondary schools to give young people a day to develop a film due to curriculum challenges- best is usually 2 hour slot which means that can’t go off site. Easier with primary schools. • FE & HE needs to be more informed on what the industry is looking for. • How to get film out there and viewed- understanding and accessing wider distribution platforms. Lack of awareness of distribution and showcasing opportunities (Space...). • No clear path for young people into directing and producing- creative leadership- felt more opportunities for technical. • Need to disseminate accessible use of web-based interactive software and support. • Support with Industry links and awareness of current trends and opportunities. • Time with professionals/industry is limited. • Transport is a regional challenge. • Funding –schools budgets have been cut + creative curriculum and freedom to teach under threat. • Credibility of senior leadership team driven by results. • Training –Many teachers have a desire to use film in the curriculum but may lack the confidence or need training n their subject area. May not realise the many possible ways that film can be used. • Quality of teaching –retraining and defining. • Good networking.

What are the top three opportunities for film education? • New funding streams and investment. • Elstree is a great asset. • Awareness of progression routes and local opportunities.

! whI . C  9  w   {  { W 
 • Arts Awards and links to BFI, giving clear progression routes. • Film education in schools need to be specific – need to be linked to the curriculum – probably literacy. Needs to be user led, not product led when presenting the opportunity to schools. (The improvement in literacy and social skills amongst excluded young people was mentioned but then would need tracking to produce the statistics). • Need to promote access to education tools and materials for film to be more widely used across the curriculum. • Good opportunity to create film community in school – co-ordinated by Film Ambassadors. • Linking more film activity with heritage and history, both as tool – archive films and as a starting point – cinema history. • Young people are usually moving image literate. • Creative industries are a huge revenue stream for the U.K –overseas media companies have a presence in the region – career pathways. • Skills shortage- there are “jobs” for trained young people. • Pre vocational advice and guidance. • Outstanding artistic and moving image practice. • Most schools and youth groups have access to Digital projectors. • Showcasing and distribution on the web. • Use of film beyond cinema- now web based / social media etc. • The space platform at thespace.org which is for films/archive and new works funded by ACE/BBC? • Long term core funding would enable tracking progress of students and therefore would make the case for the wide use of film in education provable. • Communication within area with localised hubs to facilitate contacts between practitioners and schools, yes to a Network as long as progressive, not just to meet.

Which are the schools that are championing film education? • Signals Media Arts Centre work with a lot of local Schools and Essex University. • Highsted/Borden/Ighton/ Westlands School - all using Film in education but within school do not generally let outside practitioners in. • CSS South Quadrant champion film education passionately. • The Gilberd school Colchester (the china exchange school) the head of media is Caroline McGrail and was on Signals board until recently, she has a film degree and helped Signals develop a teachers media network - this never quite took off, but still could, the idea was to have sessions for teachers and media trainers the first session was how to use media across the curriculum in school. • Chatham Girls School use film across curriculum and is very pro active – they organise the Medway Media Conference for students. • Saffron Walden County High School – champion use of film, progressive offer to key stage. • St Helena school Colchester was an arts & media specialist school - until funding was stopped. http://www.st-helena.essex.sch.uk/st-helena-life/learn-create-enjoy/ This school has a media studio and full time staff to run it and do short project work with the students - Luc Adams who works there is known locally as a media education person - we have worked together in the past. He would go to other local schools to provide training. They do a lot with green screen. • Brentwood schools media project in 2010 Signals Media was asked to develop a project with Brentwood Youth Arts Partnership - a group of schools in Brentwood interested in arts working - they were keen to do a media project. Signals researched their needs and developed a proposal - but that was at the time of

 economic crash and we could not think how to fund it. There were lots of interesting insights in to schools from that research. BYAP was facilitated by Lucy Gill, Culture, Community and Youth Development Officer, 01277 312645, [email protected]. • Generally felt there were not many schools embedding Film across the curriculum. • Pupil Referral Units were generally successful as they focused in creative and emotional outputs and worked off the main time table allowing for time and space. • Time in formal academic setting time is a real issue. • Afterschool clubs - not always a success. • Bradford –local authority have good cross curricular support. • Lack of awareness of a clear route for Directors and creative filmmaking careers.

How can we start conversations about film education in schools? • Taster sessions –like Harry Potter – Direct intervention - engage with young people very easy to excite and enthuse. • Talk to Heads – offer something useful to them and the school. Showing senior management that the skills are very valuable across the cirriculum and for all abilities. • Broker a relationship with HE. • Be specific to the School, “How working with film will solve this problem...”, knowing the problems to provide an answer - look at the schools Ofsted report challenges and provide some solutions. • Link film offer to other issues that are high on the school agenda – health, citizenship... • Need to discuss impact of access and distribution of digital content, managing its use and understanding its impact, most educate in use and misuse of social media (harmful not to) – interesting ethical aspect. • Support distribution of films made and access to films which can be shown in school and are useful. • Promote online film education programmes with local content i.e. SE. • Be very specific about benefits, outcomes and outputs – relate to curriculum. • Training for practitioners to work effectively ion schools. • Digital CVs – important to engage and promote you people skills not just written works. • Support digital portfolio work – also useful for Arts Awards. • Provide access to careers advice, apprenticeships, interns, pre vocational work... • Take work experience opportunities into schools - Drop in sessions- whole day or ½ days. • Economic drivers- jobs opportunities for all levels of academic abilities. • Dissemination. • Deliver Best practice. • Promote with Teachers at high profile events. • Promote online film education programmes with local content i.e. SE

What can Bridge do to support your development/build capacity to ensure that more young people have access to a quality film education? • Explore ideas/broker partnership/schools young people. • Link heritage and culture opportunities with film. • Broker commissioning opportunities with school and local services – fire, drugs, social. • Access to online toolkits and shared resources.

# whI . C  9  w   {  { W 
 • Set up a Heads of Media Network. • Support a Skills Bank – a place to promote and find good people to work with and resources database. • Provide Senior leadership to advocate the value of film education. • Promote the value of film education and ensure it’s always on the agenda. • Provide key information – Access to industry reports, have key figures on Industry impact and value. Package info and statistics (such as figures of contribution by film to GDP) available for conversations and bidding. • Send information out about for instance 21st Literacy as not all in group were aware. • Using and promoting successful models, i.e. Cheshire have a network of 50 schools working together to embed film across all school curriculum. • Support Communications and access to – web tools, resources, good practice (South End learning town, Creative Herts.) interesting site guiding teachers to creative places. • Advocacy. • Media promotion of good work. • One stop page/section somewhere for the whole region – to stop information being so piecemeal and fractured. • Empower film organisations to show how they can impact using Arts Awards as only 7% of schools are using (target 50%). • Broker confusing sector with many players i.e. BFI Creative England and screen agencies. • ROH Bridge could promote good practitioners in film education and help to access schools.

How can key partners around this table work with Bridge and each other to strengthen the role of film in schools?

• Provide examples of successful models. • Cheshire Education approach. • Medway Media conference. • Support an effective network. • Engage more with Artsmark accreditation. • Promote good work externally. • Use Arts mark as an auditing tool with schools - working in partnership across the Board where possible. • Keep a network going with a combination of education, screening and industry together not in silo’s.
