Screen Careers: Subject Posters

See how subjects such as chemistry, maths, English, art, history and languages link to roles in film, TV, animation, VFX and games, highlighting the breadth of opportunity across the screen sector.

This cross-curricular poster pack, taken from our Screen Careers Across the Curriculum course, will help your students connect classroom learning to real jobs in the screen industries.

Designed for learners aged 11+, it supports a whole-school approach by demonstrating how skills and knowledge developed in everyday learning are used in real jobs across the screen industries.

Use the posters to:
Introduce careers learning across the curriculum
Make clear links between subjects, skills and roles

Encourage informed subject and progression choices.
