Into Film is the UK’s leading charity for film in education. We support educators to unlock the power of film to deliver transformative learning outcomes for children and young people aged 5-19 in class, extra-curricular settings and in cinemas. Designed in partnership with educators, our programme features the UK’s only school specific film streaming service (Into Film+), online teaching resources and training, careers information, cinema screenings and a network of extra-curricular film clubs. The core Into Film programme is free for UK state schools thanks to funding from the National Lottery (through the BFI), Cinema First and Northern Ireland Screen.

Our Scotland team, based in Edinburgh, delivers tailored workshops and resources across the nation supporting the specific needs of the Curriculum for Excellence and highlighting the value of film education. We work collaboratively with a range of partners across Scotland to enhance the reach of our offer.


Glasgow Improvement Challenge


Glasgow’s Improvement Challenge 2015 – 2020 is a holistic strategy for raising attainment and achievement for all children and young people and incorporates the Scottish Attainment Challenge.

Our strategy for improving numeracy and literacy across Glasgow’s primary schools takes a two-pronged approach: Glasgow Counts, to raise attainment in numeracy, and Literacy for All, to raise attainment in literacy.
