Media Studies offers an academic and exciting field of study. 11Media balances sociology with media production to give students a working knowledge around how to read, critique and create a range of media products. 

Students will be engaging in a genre study, devising a short scene that will be made into a short film, and a unit on advertising where they will plan and produce their own ads.

Media Studies students explore media’s relationship to society and consider how messages may be communicated through various media. In a world where our media use drives so many of our every-day interactions, understanding the role it plays in our lives has never been more important. 

This course leads to L2 and L3 Media Studies, and is a university entrance approved subject.
