See how subjects such as chemistry, maths, English, art, history and languages link to roles in film, TV, animation, VFX and games, highlighting the breadth of opportunity across the screen sector.  

This cross-curricular poster pack, taken from our Screen Careers Across the Curriculum course, will help your students connect classroom learning to real jobs in the screen industries. 

Designed for learners aged 11+, it supports a whole-school approach by demonstrating how skills and knowledge developed in everyday learning are used in real jobs across the screen industries.  

Use the posters to: 

  • Introduce careers learning across the curriculum 
  • Make clear links between subjects, skills and roles 
  • Challenge assumptions about who screen careers are for 
  • Encourage informed subject and progression choices.

Meeting careers benchmarks and standards 

You can use the poster pack in multiple ways to help you meet careers benchmarks and standards:   

  • Display in classrooms or corridors to reinforce subject–career links 
  • Use as a lesson starter or plenary to prompt discussion 
  • Support careers lessons, assemblies or enrichment activity 
  • Use in department planning to embed careers across schemes of work.

Updating our resources

We have developed a large catalogue of educational resources since launching in 2013, and some references and terminology will inevitably have dated as society and language evolves. We are aware of this and will be updating resources when our production schedule allows.

What our educators say

"Our SATs results this year were great, both progress and attainment in reading and writing have improved compared with last year, which we feel has been largely as a result of integrating the Into Film strategies."
