Podcast and video studio
for schools

Open-evening, recruitment, and headteacher video for schools and academy trusts.

Why schools work with us

Schools need more video than ever — open evenings, Year 7 and Sixth Form recruitment, headteacher welcomes, and staff recruitment — but filming on site means working around lessons, noise, and pupils who have not given consent. Kent Content Hub gives your leadership team a quiet, professional set for the talking-head pieces, so the on-site filming can focus on the school itself.

Content formats that fit the sector

Headteacher and principal welcomes

Short filmed welcomes and vision pieces for the school website, prospectus pages, and open-evening screens. Recorded in one sitting, with retakes, away from the bell and the corridor.

Open-evening and admissions campaigns

Interviews with heads of year, the head of Sixth Form, and subject leads, cut into vertical clips for Year 7 and Sixth Form recruitment campaigns on Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube.

Staff recruitment films

Teachers and support staff talking about why they work at the school, for job adverts, the careers page, and trust-wide recruitment drives.

Trust and governance updates

CEO, chair of governors, and trust leadership updates for parents and staff, recorded as video or as a short podcast series.

A typical session

Half-day session, a headteacher welcome plus 4–5 staff interviews, edited into an open-evening film, a staff recruitment film, and 10–15 captioned vertical clips for admissions campaigns.

The questions schools ask

Wouldn't it be easier to film at school?

For pupils and the building, yes, and you should. For leadership interviews, a studio is quicker: no bells, no interruptions, no corridor noise, and no pupils in the background who have not consented to appear. Most schools record several staff pieces here in a single half day.

Our budget is tight.

Hourly studio hire starts at £30 an hour, and a half day covers four or five staff interviews. Schools working with Social Media for Schools book at discounted rates.

Can pupils take part?

Yes, with written parental consent and a member of staff present throughout. Many schools keep pupil content to on-site filming and use the studio for adults only, which keeps consent simple.

Compliance, accessibility, and sensitivity

  • Parental consent for any pupil who appears, recorded before the session, and a member of staff with the pupils at all times.
  • Safeguarding — no full names, uniforms with crests, or identifying details of pupils without explicit consent.
  • Approval from the headteacher or trust communications lead before anything is published.
  • Accessibility — captions on every clip, as most parents watch on mute on their phones.

Social Media for Schools works from the same building and handles social media, consent, and admissions campaigns for schools. Their schools book the studio at discounted rates. Visit Social Media for Schools.
