From classic adaptations of Shakespeare plays such as Romeo and Juliet and Macbeth to re-contextualised interpretations like 10 Things I Hate About You and The Lion King, the resource examines not only Shakespeare as a writer, but also as a storyteller and his work as performance pieces, not just literature. For use with students aged 14 to 16, this resource is designed to enhance the teaching of Shakespeare’s plays at GCSE level by encouraging students to think critically about a variety of film adaptations and each director’s interpretation of the original play as a performance piece. The films were compiled in response English teachers’ preferences and vary greatly in terms of their country of origin and approach to the original Shakespeare play.

Into Film has partnered with the Industry Trust for Intellectual Property Awareness and the Intellectual Property Office for the second year, to produce a new resource for Primary students. Intellectual property supports creativity, innovation, and has an important role to play in both the UK economy, and the creative industries. That is why we're committed to ensuring children and young people are fully aware of exactly what IP is, why it's important, and how it links to children's own creativity and filmmaking. This resource introduces key ideas of intellectual property and copyright, enabling learners to explore concepts of creativity and ownership in relation to film. By becoming creators themselves and exploring the different roles involved in making a film, the activities encourage children to understand and respect intellectual property and want to preserve it in the future.
