What the college says

Film Studies is a fascinating and highly rewarding subject. Film Studies will not take anything away from the pleasure of being part of the cinema-going audience; indeed, it should enhance that experience by equipping you with the essential tools for analysing and criticising films, and the wider knowledge of the institutional factors which dictate the way in which films are made. In addition, the practical elements of making meaning on screen through digital video are explicitly taught, discussed and put into practice as part of assessment at A level.

What you need to get on

Students should have achieved a grade 5 in an English GCSE, either English Language or English Literature.

How you are assessed

Academic subjects, mostly exams, three or four at once. The traditional route to university.

What this level means

The A-level-equivalent step, and what universities and employers ask for.

Is it open to 16 to 18 year olds?

Approved for 16 to 18 study on the government's Section 96 list.
