5. Criteria for approving private access requests

The applicant must work in an educational context within the UK. This list of educational user groups is typical:

• School teachers

• University or college lecturers

• Freelance educators

• Educators working in establishments outside Local Education Authorities, Schools, Universities (for example, film theatres,…)

• Freelance filmmakers working in education

• Lifelong learning institutions/providers

Users working in the above contexts must be involved with the delivery of learning, for example, classroom teaching, delivering workshops, working with community groups or learning providers or working to deliver educational resources.

Applicants not working in educational contexts in the UK will not be granted private access. Access denial applies to the following types of users:

• Anyone wanting to use the site for commercial purposes.

• Users who use the site for their own personal research.

• Historians who use the site for their own interest or provide a genealogical service to others for commercial or personal gain.

• Filmmakers who use the site for commercial or personal gain.

• Students who do not have a valid university or colleage or school email address.

• Institutions or persons from overseas - under our Terms of Use, copyright will not apply outside of the UK.

The above list is not an exhaustive one. Scotland on Screen will always vet applicants on a case-by-case basis.
