Studying Media gives students the chance to develop a critical understanding of the role of the media in daily life. It encourages an understanding of how to use key media concepts to analyse media products and the opportunity for hands-on practical work.

The Media department forms part of the Arts and Technology faculty. We have very high standards and have achieved excellent results at GCSE and A level. A number of our students have gained places at university, pursuing a career in both film and print production. Every year we hold a very successful private view for students’ examination work, which is always well-supported.

We encourage students to spend time after school where they can further develop their ICT design skills. We also run support sessions for any students wishing to work on coursework out of school hours.
