Don’t waste your time in front of the screen. Study it! It has been said that media literacy is as important to living in the 21st century as regular literacy was to the 20th century.

Across the two year course, you will study a vast range of different media forms in relation to their construction, impact on consumers, how they represent the world and how the industries work. Industries covered across the A-Level are: Newspapers, Advertising, Music Videos, Film, Video Games, Radio, Television, Magazines and Online Media.

In your second year of study you will have the opportunity to put your studies into practice through a practical piece of coursework.
