This strategy grows out of the work of a wide-ranging Strategy Action Group, brought together under the auspices of the UK Film Council and consisting of representatives from the BFI, Film Education, Film Club, First  Light Movies, Skillset and the national and regional screen agencies.

We recognise that, as well as these organisations, many of which are funded directly or indirectly by the UKFC, there are many small community-based and locally funded organisations which are the life-blood of film education provision. Most significantly, the 35,000 primary and secondary schools and colleges in the UK are all our partners or potential partners.

In going forward it is our intention to work with, and support the work of, organisations of all different types and sizes who are part of film education today.
