EXHIBITION Image: Bajirao Mastani Courtesy of Eros International EXHIBITION
BFI RESEARCH AND STATISTICS STATISTICS PUBLISHED JUNE 2016 EXHIBITION Image: Bajirao Mastani courtesy of Eros International EXHIBITION The overall number of screens in the UK continues to rise, mainly due to the increasing number of multiplex cinemas. However, augmenting commercial cinema is a thriving voluntary sector in film exhibition, and film society admissions are highest in areas less well served by commercial cinemas. FACTS IN FOCUS At the end of 2015, the UK had 4,046 screens, 137 more than 2014, in 751 cinemas. There were just over six screens for every 100,000 people, the same as in 2014, but lower than countries such as the USA (12.6), France (8.7), Australia (8.6), Spain (7.4) and Italy (6.5). Only 7% of screens showed mainly ‘specialised’ (ie non-mainstream) programming, while 0.1% of screens were dedicated to South Asian films. According to IHS, since 2014 all screens in the UK have been equipped for digital projection. Over two fifths (44%) of community cinemas which responded to the latest Cinema For All annual survey saw an increase in their annual admissions compared with the previous year; 31% recorded roughly the same number. The average ticket price at commercial cinemas was £7.19. EXHIBITION UK CINEMA SITES Figure 1 shows the number of cinema sites in the UK from 2006 to 2015. The total number of sites has fluctuated over the period with a low of 697 in 2006 and a high of 769 in 2012. This fluctuation has mainly been driven by changes in the number of traditional and mixed use sites (mixed use screens are used for film screenings only part of the time). -

Friday News the 96% Challenge
4/11/16 FRIDAY NEWS No. 8 THE 96% CHALLENGE As you will be aware, the school has a legal duty to closely monitor pupil attendance. Over recent years, the pressure from the Government upon schools to improve the attendance rates of pupils has increased significantly. In response to the latest changes in legislation we are introducing a number of changes to our attendance policy and strategies. We are looking to achieve an overall attendance target of 96% across this year for the school as a whole as this in now the national average in primary schools across England. This means that individual pupils will need to aim to reach a personal target as close to this percentage as possible. As a parent, I realise that there are times when children are simply too unwell to attend school and the challenge targets we are setting take account of this. There are only 190 school days in an academic year for pupils. Achieving a 96% attendance rate therefore means being absent for a maximum of approximately 7 days in any one year. If a child suffers a major illness then clearly this will be difficult to meet, but in the normal course of a school year this should be achievable. Children who fall below 90% are now classed as Persistent Absentees and this is recognised as a serious level of concern. In real terms, this means missing 20 school days across the year. If this happens, parents may well find themselves being visited by the Local Authority’s Education Welfare Officer (EWO). -

EXHIBITION BFI Research and Statistics PUBLISHED NOVEMBER 2015 Image: Wadjda courtesy of Soda Pictures EXHIBITION THE OVERALL NUMBER OF SCREENS IN THE UK CONTINUES TO RISE, MAINLY DUE THE INCREASING NUMBER OF MULTIPLEX CINEMAS. HOWEVER, AUGMENTING COMMERCIAL CINEMA IS A THRIVING VOLUNTARY SECTOR IN FILM EXHIBITION, AND FILM SOCIETY ADMISSIONS ARE HIGHEST IN AREAS LESS WELL SERVED BY COMMERCIAL CINEMAS.

BFI's Independent Film Commission
BFI COMMISSION ON UK INDEPENDENT FILM Printed page Printed page CONTENTS 6 Foreword 8 Introduction 12 The Commission report 20 Our proposals for industry 1. Maximising the value of rights 2. Projects to engage and grow younger audiences 3. EIS fund to channel equity into UK independent film companies 4. More commercial development funding 32 Our recommendations for Government and the BFI 5. Maximising the potential value of the UK film tax relief 6. Driving growth domestically and internationally 7. Strengthening conditions for co-production 8. Continued cooperation with the EU after Brexit 9. Building our relationships in key growth markets 42 Appendices FOREWORD 6 Josh Berger CBE Chair, BFI In our BFI2022 strategy we committed to undertake a special commission to look more deeply into the current health of independent film. Over the years there have been regular commissions, reviews and studies looking at UK independent film. However we are all operating in a very fast moving arena, and it is several years now since the last film policy review. It was therefore acknowledged by the BFI Board that to stay alert to changes and developments a fresh look was merited and would be really valuable. I would particularly like to thank Zygi Kamasa, who generously took on the task of chairing this new Commission, and the Commission membership who brought expertise from all areas, traditional and new. It is to their credit that they determined from the start that the Commission and its report should be industry-led. This report is pragmatic in its approach, doesn’t hide from the transition the industry is weathering, and identifies that at this point no-one is able to predict which of the many business models will triumph. -
