Following successful use by Brighton College Bangkok and St. Andrews International during staff INSET and meetings to start the year. Empathy Studios have made the decision to offer a free film and INSET activity to all schools. It doesn’t matter if you don’t have a school subscription set up, you can access the 13+ version of Santwana’s Story for free until 4th September.
Use it across any of the following...
-
INSET and staff development days
-
Team-building sessions
-
Conversations around school values and culture
-
A shared activity between training sessions
-
Beginning-of-year reflection with your team
Check the description on the film too for a suggested 30 minute session structure too (though don’t be surprised if conversations can’t be stopped)!
Watch HERE or by using the link below.
Set in rural Nepal, the film follows Santwana as she begins her journey as a teacher. It offers a perspective on education that feels particularly relevant at the start of a school year: what education can give us, what it asks of us, and how culture, identity and self-expression shape the way we teach and learn.
A simple film. A room full of teachers. And quite possibly (definitely) a much better conversation than another presentation
Free for everyone until Friday 4 September.
Let us know how you get on!
