A level Media Studies

This is a sixth form subject only. See Computing, IT and Creative iMedia for subjects taught at KS4.

Media studies offers students the chance to analyse ways in which the mass media contribute to people’s understanding of the contemporary world - a world marked by the intense growth of media forms. It’s an exploration of the media including detailed analysis of the various industries, texts and audiences. 

There is also a practical component that allows students to create their own texts (print, digital or moving image).
