The BBFC hosts a limited number of External Presentations and Workshops for students at their place of study. These are currently free of charge. If you would like to find out more or make a preliminary booking, please contact us.

The BBFC regularly hosts educational events at UK Film Festivals. If you would like us to be part of your Festival's education programme, contact us.

The BBFC is currently running regular Student Seminars during term times. Students studying the topics of Film Censorship and/or Media Regulation are invited to attend a morning session with Examiners, held at the Board's offices in central London (for location map and travel directions , click here). Each session will consist of a presentation by an Examiner illustrated by clips from relevant films and a chance to ask questions about the work of the BBFC. For larger block bookings there is an opportunity for the session to be customised to the needs of a particular group. Please note that plenty of notice needs to be given for this. All seminars take place on a Thursday.

Availability for the 2007/08 season of Seminars currently looks like this:

Date	Subject	Availability	Book Now
22/05/2008 11am	BBFC Seminar	2
19/06/2008 11am	BBFC Seminar	6

Before completing the online booking form, please note the following points:

• all sessions begin at 11.00am and finish at 1.00pm
• there is an upper limit of 20 student places per seminar owing to restrictions on space
• for large groups of accompanied students, we make allowance for one teacher/tutor to attend for every 10 of their students present e.g. for a block booking of twenty students, a maximum of two of their teachers/tutors are able to attend
• seminar places will be issued on a strictly first come, first served basis
• seminars are FREE to all who attend but bookings will be confirmed only on receipt of a holding cheque of £10 per person, (or £50 per group booking for 10 or more places), which will be destroyed on attendance of the seminar

In house seminars are hosted at BBFC headquarters in Soho Square. There is a map available here. If there is any delay please ring the BBFC switchboard on 020 7440 0299 as soon as possible to let the host know you are running late. While all attempts will be made to accommodate visitors, it may be necessary for latecomers to wait until there is a member of staff to escort them to the seminar.

Please ensure your party knows this is a working building, so it is essential that visitors are prompt and that students are supervised at all times.

For Health and Safety reasons it is important for teachers to bring a list of attendees – including students and teachers, and to let the BBFC know ahead of time what ages the students are.
