A Level Media Studies (GCE2Y)
at Bishop Luffa School, Chichester · school or sixth form
What the college says
It is impossible not to be impacted by the media in your day-to-day life. It's where we find out what's happening in the world; where we download music, films and content. It's where we see the results of referendums, elections and uprisings and how we learn the impact they've had on us all. It's where we interact with friends and project who we are. From politics and news to entertainment and culture, from advertising and marketing to social media and digital technology, the average person is exposed to 9.8 hours of media content daily.
