education
Learning, outreach and engagement with new audiences, young and old.
The Factory team have decades of experience delivering educational and learning content.
In the early 2000s Julie and Lisa were part of a team that delivered the first projects to Teachers' TV and since then have created video content for both teachers, students and adult learners - working for BBC Bitesize, BBC Teach, CBBC and Ed Tech companies.
We have a tried and tested method we use for each project. Defining our audience, understanding teachers' and pupils' needs, examining curricula, looking at the latest pedagogy and then coming up with a creative solution that will engage and inspire.
Our project with Factory Films, producing ‘Dyslexia: Make a difference’ for BBC Teach, was exciting and fascinating, enriched by Lisa’s zeal for giving young people a voice in promoting positive ways forward for young people with dyslexia. The process from inception to completion was both smooth and organised. The experience for the young people involved could not have been more positive.
