Teach Beyond Text is our national student voice research, drawing on the experiences of more than 1,100 students across schools, colleges and universities to explore the role of film and television in post-16 education. Our findings show that students see these formats as a core part of effective learning, not an optional extra. They describe film and television as helping them access ideas more easily, engage more deeply with their subjects, and learn in ways that reflect how they process information. Yet access remains inconsistent. Our executive summary brings together the key findings.
Access the findings
We’ve listened closely to students across the UK to understand how they are really learning, what helps them succeed and where gaps remain. Through a national survey of over 1,000 learners our report brings together robust data and hundreds of student voices to reveal what truly makes learning more inclusive, engaging and effective.
We captured responses from students in schools, Further Education and Higher Education, ensuring a broad and balanced national picture.
We gathered over 900 qualitative responses to capture lived experiences and provide context and explanatory insights behind the data.
26% of respondents identified as neurodivergent, making the findings significant for conversations around equitable learning design.
The full Teach Beyond Text report includes: neurodivergent vs neurotypical analysis, complete breakdowns by setting (School, FE, HE), high vs low access comparison data and strategic next steps.
