The Media Studies Course
Media Studies is the study of the grammar and language of film, television, newspapers and all forms of mass media.
Students follow the WJEC course, which specifically includes

Assessment is by final examination and coursework. As part of their coursework students produce their own media text. In the past this has been a newspaper, which was published and distributed to the 850 pupils who attend the school.
