Welcome to Media Studies

The Media department provides all of the equipment to enable pupils to develop a range of skills in both analysing and creating media products.
In analysing the media, learners will:

• Demonstrate skills of enquiry, critical thinking and analysis
• Analyse and compare how media products construct and communicate meaning and generate intended interpretations and responses.
• Respond through discursive writing to show knowledge and understanding of media issues.
• Use specialist subject-specific terminology appropriately.

In creating a media production, learners will:

• Develop practical and decision-making skills.
• Apply knowledge and understanding of media language and representation to a media production.
