🎬 Film education in action: A scuola di cinema / Cinema at School
ECFA is proud to be a partner of Cineteca di Bologna in its inspiring film education work, and to collaborate with Cineteca also through our biannual Workshop Warehouse event.
This June, Cineteca di Bologna wrapped up the 2025/2026 edition of A scuola di cinema – Cinema at School, one of the flagship programmes of its educational department Schermi e Lavagne.
The scale and depth of the project are remarkable:
👩🏫 500 teachers involved
🎒 4,900 students reached
🏫 90 school complexes across 7 Italian regions
🎥 120 screenings in cinemas and schools
🛠️ More than 1,000 hours of workshops
Through teacher training, screenings, hands-on workshops, online educational resources, film analysis, and creative activities, the programme helps children and young people discover cinema not only as an art form, but also as a language for learning, expression and participation.
For ECFA, initiatives like Cinema at School show exactly why European cooperation in film education matters: sharing knowledge, building networks, and supporting meaningful encounters between children, teachers, educators and cinema.
Congratulations to Cineteca di Bologna, Schermi e Lavagne, and all the teachers, students and partners involved!
