Screenwriting software for schools Give the whole class the whole page.

One school plan puts every student and teacher at your school on EnsembleWriter Pro. $80 a month, however many of them join.

Billed monthly. Cancel anytime. Nothing for IT to install.

How it works Set it up once. Run it from one list.

No site licence to negotiate and nothing for IT to install. A teacher starts the plan from their school email address and manages it from their account.

  1. 1

    Start the plan

    Sign in with your school email, confirm the address from the link we send, and check out. The plan covers your school's email domain.

  2. 2

    Invite the class

    Paste a roster of school addresses. Each student gets a link, and joins with a new account or the one they already write in.

  3. 3

    Keep the list

    Add a colleague as an admin, resend a link, remove a class at the end of term. Everyone keeps their own scripts.

Their pages, their words A writing class should teach writing. So the editor never writes the script for them.

Nothing in the script editor writes a line, and no ghost text finishes a sentence. The script a student hands in is the one they wrote, and its Non-AI Verified record shows how it was written.

The work

The editor never suggests, completes or rewrites a line of the script. The cursor waits for the student.

The data

We don't train models on what anyone writes, and teachers see names and addresses, never scripts.

The format

Scene headings, action, character and dialogue format themselves, so class time goes to story, not margins.

What every student gets EnsembleWriter Pro, for film and writing classes.

Group projects, live

Writing partners work in the same script at the same time, each with their own cursor. No emailing drafts back and forth.

Hand it in with a link

A share link opens the formatted script in any browser, no account needed, so the teacher reads the work where it lives.

Table reads on demand

Every character gets a voice of their own, so a student hears which lines land before workshop, not during it.

From script to shoot

For production classes: every scene becomes a scene on the shot list, with an overhead diagram for each shot and a call sheet to export.

Nothing to install

It runs in the browser, so school laptops and home computers are ready the moment a student signs in.

No page limit

Free accounts stop at 12 pages. On the plan, a feature script is as welcome as a short.

One price One plan for the whole school.

On a domain that isn't a .edu? Use the Feedback button in the editor and we'll add your school's domain so you can start the plan yourself. Full details in the school plan guide.

FAQ Questions teachers ask us.

Who can join a school plan?
Anyone with an email address at your school's domain. A teacher invites people by pasting their school addresses, and there is no limit on how many join.
Can students use the account they already have?
Yes. A student who already writes under a personal email signs in from the invitation and brings their scripts with them. The account then uses their school address.
Can teachers read their students' scripts?
No. The plan shows names and email addresses, nothing else. A student shares a script the usual way, with a share link or by inviting you as a collaborator.
What happens at the end of the term?
Remove students from the plan whenever you like. They keep their accounts and every script, and go back to their own plan.
What counts as a school email address?
You can start a plan yourself from a .edu address, its national forms such as .edu.au, an academic domain such as .ac.uk, a UK .sch.uk domain, a US k12 district domain, or the domain of one of about 10,000 universities worldwide. For any other domain, use the Feedback button in the editor and we'll add it so you can start the plan yourself.
