Positive Strides UK is a film and media training organisation addressing the needs of targeted groups through the creation of structured educational courses based on the production of a film. This provides learning and training activities incorporating reading, writing and IT skills.
Through improvisation, role-play and team work, young people develop their skills underpinned by a personal work plan with individually set targets. The project gives trainees new opportunities and helps them to identify and develop skills and discover new ways of learning.
As an organisation specialising in working with young people from diverse backgrounds, Positive Strides UK recognises that many people are unable to learn in traditional settings and therefore fail to reach their full potential. Many of the young people that Positive Strides UK engages with have low self esteem, poor social skills and low aspirations. The aim is to change and address this culture and show young people new ways of learning, help them to discover their potential and bring out their creativity.
