We create all our high-quality ClickView-produced content in consultation with subject experts. We also align it to the National Curriculum and Curriculum for Excellence, so it meets all your teaching and learning needs.

Access TV recordings from 24 Freeview and 8 European satellite channels, including the BBC RES Archive. We’ll even remove the adverts from your selected program, so it’s ready to use in class.

We believe in using video to transform learning. Interactive videos help engage students in their learning, taking responsibility for their progress and understanding of topics or concepts.

ClickView is straightforward to use, integrating seamlessly with many VLEs, and you can access it with Single Sign-On (SSO). We’re constantly updating features to streamline your ClickView experience, such as our improved Library Editor.

You’re never alone in the classroom. As well as ample teaching resources to accompany our video content, you also have access to a full suite of ClickView training resources, including our training channel, webinars and events.
Using educational videos in the classroom

Using video in the classroom is no longer a passive viewing experience. We’ve transformed it into active learning by expanding the possibilities. By using the interactive video feature, you can quickly add annotations, short answer questions and multiple choice responses to any video. Once your students complete your set questions, you receive instant detailed feedback via ClickView to indicate their level of concept understanding. Our interactive videos also support blended learning as students can engage deeply with video within and beyond the classroom.

We support and encourage innovative learning, such as the flipped classroom model. Many of our users also upload their own teaching examples to inspire others with new ideas. With students able to access ClickView on any device, including mobile, there are opportunities to create and upload their own content for a vlog, reflection or other assessment task. Learn more about using interactive videos

Teaching resources for primary, secondary and further education

No matter which level you teach at, or which subject areas you specialise in, you’ll find video resources to support teaching and learning in your classroom. Whether it’s Shakespeare for English, Algebra for Maths or The Solar System for Science, you and your team will have a range of content to choose from. Alongside our video content, you’ll find different types of supporting resources. These include lesson plan packs, posters, presentation slides and study guides.

We also support you with flexibility beyond the classroom. Being able to access ClickView on any device means students can access videos and resources at home if they’ve missed a class or to reinforce a concept. You can also set a task for students to record and upload a video that can be done in their own time. Learn more about teaching resources

Creating learning resources for teaching teams

We encourage collaboration within your schools, especially when it comes to curating learning resources for particular units of work or year levels. Collaboration between educators is an effective way to develop a deeper selection of content. You can do this using our new Library Editor. Develop shared playlists to achieve teaching and learning consistency across a particular subject or year level. Suggested lesson plans and classroom activities can also be shared among a teaching team.

Browse the collection to see our full list of videos and accompanying resources. Then be sure to look at the Exchange and Freeview TV to curate a playlist of extra resources. Adding a wide selection of resources to your playlists helps cater to students in your classes with different abilities. You can complete formative assessment via interactive video to establish levels of understanding, then extend or support students as necessary with tailored resources.
