Course summary

In A Level Media Studies, you’ll learn to question the validity of the information you receive from the media, helping you to understand how the world around us is shaped by the information we consume, and how we’ve come to find ourselves in the era of ‘fake news’. This is a dynamic course; you’ll study a range of media disciplines from traditional print media to the contemporary online platforms we use today. Audience reception, regulation, representation and gender are just some of the themes you will explore. This is an engaging A Level that will see you building both practical and academic skills that support a wide range of career ambitions. You’ll need no prior experience of this subject but a passion for current affairs and an interest in the world around you is a must!
