Equal Opportunities

ScreenSkills and Mission Accomplished are committed to Equal Opportunities within the screen sector. Applications are invited from all members of the community and particularly from those who are currently underrepresented in the film and TV industry, e.g. from members of the Black and Minority Ethnic communities, from those who are disabled and from women. Please help us by completing this form. If you prefer not to, then please select option in response to each question when filling in your form. However, it is hard for us to contribute to improving diversity and inclusivity in UK screen when we do not know who is out there. The information you provide will remain confidential.

What is your age?*

Do you consider yourself to have a disability, impairment, learning difference or long-term condition?*

The Equality Act 2010 defines disability as ‘a physical or mental impairment which has a substantial & long term effect on a person’s ability to carry out normal day to day activities’.

What best describes your ethnic group?*

Ethnic origin is not about nationality, place of birth or citizenship. It is about the group to which you perceive you belong. Please tick one only. If you belong to multiple groups, you can indicate mixed background below.

What best describes your gender?*

Do you identify as trans?*

What best describes your sexual orientation?*

What type of school did you mainly attend between the ages of 11 and 16?*

Although socio-economic background is not a protected characteristic under the Equality Act 2010, according to the Diversity in TV report by Ofcom in 2018, all of the main five broadcasters have acknowledged that this is a key area with which the industry needs to continue to engage.

What work did your parent/caregiver do?*

Please think about the parent or other care-giver who was the highest income earner in your house when you were around 14 years old. What kind of work did they do? If this question does not apply to you (because for example, you were in care at this time), you can indicate this below.

Do you have caring responsibilities?*
