What the college says

A Level Media Studies will help you to explore the profound impact media has on society, culture, and communication. The course will develop your critical thinking skills to analyse and deconstruct various media forms, including film, television, advertising and digital media. Through discussion, essay writing and practical media making, you will learn about Media Language, Audiences, Industries and Representations. The course can be quite political, as you consider and critique the different responses which media might provoke in an audience. A Level Media Studies empowers you to become a discerning media consumer, producer, and scholar, preparing you for a future in media-related fields, or for life as a well-equipped citizen in a media-saturated world.
