The pupils created the TV show as part of the Rotherham Student Journalist Project. The team of seven year eight students were tasked with producing a news report that would help their peers understand the transformation planned for the borough's schools.
They attended a conference on BSF and talked to teachers, education leaders and key practitioners to research the potential impact of the project on Rotherham.
Barrie Morgan, Rotherham Student Journalist Project co-ordinator, said: "Enabling Rotherham's young people to communicate effectively using many different channels is a key part of the Student Journalist Project.
"We're delighted to have been able to give the students an opportunity to work with a business in the creative industry and develop a news report that will be seen by teaching professionals across the Borough."
