Engaging with schools and colleges across the region

Tyneside Cinema has a long history of engaging with schools and colleges across the region, both through our screening programme and special events at the cinema and, more recently, with outreach screenings and filmmaking projects.

We work with young people from ages 4 to 19 through our schools and colleges programme. Opportunities to get involved at our newly reopened Pilgrim Street site include:

Talks and tours of the newly restored building
Discount tickets for school groups attending our film screenings
Study Days for students and teachers of Film and Media Studies
Study Days for students and teachers of Modern Foreign Languages
Study Days for teachers and students of English As A Second Language
InSET sessions on using film and the moving image in the classroom
Special school screenings
Industry events, introducing pupils to the professional film world
Northern Lights Film Festival and AV Festival Education programmes
Practical filmmaking workshops and longer-term projects

Full details of up and coming events are listed below and in our Schools Newsletter.
