Schools plc is an innovative all inclusive resource that helps to deliver the 'Developing Economic Well-Being' aspect of 'Every Child Matters.

It contains lesson plans and worksheets that can be fully customized to suit the school's needs. It also contain unique video lessons that will help to deliver the programme. It certainly is a 'Year's work in a box' and is used in school across the UK. All of the research, production of films and worksheets was carried out by us.

Podcasting is now a part of everyday life and is featured in the Literacy Strategy. Our 'On Air!' CD Rom contains everything a school needs to start podcasting using the free to use 'Audacity' software. The CD Rom contains myriad examples, resources for script writing and podcasting ideas and a series of narrated video lessons that show how to use 'Audacity'. This resource can be used as a back up for training or as a stand alone product. All resources and training films were produced by us.

Here is an example of some of the video on the disc.

The first is an introduction by ALF, the second, on eof the training films.

Part of our work involves us teaching children how to make films. This can be done on a one day introductory course or as a longer residency via organisations such at 'Creative Partnerships'.

Prior to all of our sessions we send the school a pack so that an understanding of the process can be discussed before we start and storyboards can be drafted. All materials have been produced by us.

Here is a film made by some Year 10 students (with loud music!).
