What is it?
Sky: The Edit is an opportunity for schools to introduce a digital storytelling challenge to their students. It is aimed at young people aged between 8-18 and provides them with a chance to create a 90-second news report on topics presented by Sky.
Schools need to register for the Edit, and they will gain access to Sky materials that support this project.
Sky: The Edit has recently been updated with brand-new content. There will also be a new competition which will launch in the next few months. Details to follow.
Sky: The Edit
There are three main themes that you can choose to base your news report on.
Equality, Diversity and Inclusion

Each of these provides a full guide to how you can create your news reports. This includes original Sky videos as well as easy-to-use reference sheets to help your students.
This gives a brief overview of some of the aspects of The Edit and what the students gained from the experience of producing their movie clip.
