The British Film Institute (BFI) has commissioned CUREE to conduct an evaluation of the 5-19 film education programme that is being delivered by Into Film, in partnership with the BFI, over a period of four years (2013-2017). This programme includes a wide range of activities (such as film clubs, film festivals and film making activities) to encourage watching, making and critical understanding of film for 5-19 year olds across the UK. CUREE is currently establishing a baseline for film education activities in order to assess any impact the programme has on young people over the next few years.
This will be done in the following ways:
- 16 longitudinal case studies in schools across the UK
- Annual online surveys to capture longitudinal data from Into Film Club leaders, teachers and young people
- Focus groups with stakeholders
- Documentary analysis
The evaluation will also identify any potential developments to be made to the programme as it is rolled out.
