Years Booked: 2012 –

YEAR GROUPS: 8 (ONE DAY FILM SCHOOL) 12 (THE SEQUEL)

“We have enjoyed a long working relationship with the One Day Film School, because this day has always proved to be a great success with our Year 8. It offers a very unique day in school, setting the students the challenges of working effectively in a team, demonstrating leadership skills, learning new film making techniques and, above all, of taking risks and being creative under pressure” – KAY TAYLOR, HEAD OF LOWER SCHOOL

“The girls were buzzing afterwards and all had thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks so much. Will definitely contact you about a date again for next year!” – SOPHIA SCOTT-MALDEN, head of 6th form
