What the college says

Digital Media prepares you for the world of work within the Media industry.

Unit 2: Pre-production and Planning. Unit 3: Create a Media product. 3 further units will be studied in Year 13 to top-up the qualification to the Extended Certificate.

You will be given assignments throughout the course that will allow you to learn and demonstrate that learning. There is an element of written work but other forms of assessment are used to make the learning experience diverse and challenging. Further Education / Traditional Degree. Apprenticeships.
