Scotland’s first National Film and TV School starts courses
Film and TV school, NFTS Scotland, has begun its first courses for students.
Part of the UK’s National Film and Television School, the school is working in partnership with BBC Scotland and is backed with £475,000 of Scottish Government funding. It offers courses in all aspects of film, television and games development at the BBC’s Pacific Quay and Dumbarton studios.
The school aims to provide bursary funding to a third of students in the first two years in order to improve diversity and inclusion in the screen sector. The Scottish Government and BBC are jointly funding the bursary scheme.
Culture Secretary Fiona Hyslop met students and tutors on the school’s first course at Pacific Quay, a documentary storyline module led by BAFTA-nominated Peter Dale, former head of documentaries at Channel 4 and NFTS Co-Head of Documentary.
It is the first time the UK’s National Film and Television School has had a base outside the southeast of England.
