Media Studies
Media Studies Intent and Rationale:
Humanity is always striving to communicate and to be understood in a rapidly changing and exciting world. GCSE Media Studies is like learning to read a secret code. Students move from deconstructing single images, understanding newspapers, magazines, radio, websites and music videos to understanding how global industries influence what we see on our screens. Students uncover theories and ideas of the past and present and see if and how they relate to our rapidly changing and exciting world. Our Media Studies course instills the belief in our students that we can communicate our message in an ever changing world. Our voice can be heard. Students can achieve and become successful masters of communication across contexts whilst being sensitive to others.
