Middle East season on Teachers TV

Programme highlights this week include:

Two Schools of Nablus
New Term
Under Pressure
Under Siege
This three-part series follows two Palestinian schools as they struggle to provide their pupils with an education amid the turmoil of the intifada. The schools are faced with a number of pressures, including a teachers' strike and economic difficulties, as they try to ensure that the children are able to complete their schooling.

First Lesson in Peace
This film explores the Jewish-Arab conflict through the eyes of a six-year-old girl during her first year at the mixed Arab-Jewish primary school. It takes the form of a letter which follows the clashes and encounters she experiences as she is introduced to the brutal reality of life in the Middle East.

Judah and Mohammad
Being a teenager is tough, but what is it like to grow up in the shadow of military conflict and occupation? As violence in the Middle East reaches boiling point, Judah and Mohammad is an intimate portrait of two teenage boys, one Israeli and one Palestinian, filmed over 18 months.

Other programmes include:

The Short Life of Anne Frank
