Course Title: British Pathe and Audio Network

Curriculum / Subject Area: ICT /Cross curricular
School Phase: All

The British Pathe Archive is an amazing resource, with 3,500 hours of high-quality digitised newsreel film covering events from the death of Victoria to the birth of Space travel. You can access the site at home and download free low quality preview clips and stills, but under the terms of the Schools Licence Northumberland schools can now access the high-resolution/small watermark versions of all the films and stills.

The course will show participants how to access the website and download clips, as well as providing ideas for use in a wide range of lessons. There will also be plenty of opportunity for you to browse this fascinating archive.

The Audio Network website gives education users access to the same high-quality music resource that is used by professional film, television and media producers. Northumberland schools are now able to access this resource free of charge in school and download a huge range of music for ICT and digital video projects across the curriculum.
