    Dominance in Film and High-End Television

    The statistics are staggering. A massive 75 percent of all UK film production spend since 2020 involved at least one NFTS graduate. For high-end television, that figure jumps to an incredible 89 percent. At major US studios like Netflix and Disney, graduates have a hand in over 90 percent of their UK film spend.This influence is visible on major sets. Jon M. Chu’s Wicked employed 22 NFTS alumni.

    The school is using new funding to broaden its course offerings. A £10 million government investment and £6 million from the industry will fund new disciplines. The NFTS plans to start courses in costume design, generative AI, and virtual production. These new courses aim to connect traditional skills with emerging technologies.Director Jon Wardle acknowledges the ethical questions around AI. He says the school’s approach is to help people navigate the technology effectively. The goal is to prepare graduates for the realities of modern production. The school is focused on sustainable career building across different media sectors, including games.

       

    Championing Diversity and Inclusion

    The report highlights significant progress on diversity. Thirty-three percent of NFTS students now come from ethnically diverse backgrounds. This compares favorably to the wider UK film and TV industry average of 16 percent. The school attributes this success to its nationwide outreach hubs and scholarship programs.Further steps are being taken to improve accessibility. New on-campus accommodation for disabled students is in the works. This will remove a major barrier to entry.
