Overview

If you are already teaching Media Studies you can compare current and revised specifications on the What are the changes? page.

The great thing about our GCSE in Media Studies is it introduces learners to key concepts, and helps them develop insights into a wide range of media and allows them to apply their knowledge and skills in creative, practical ways.

Further benefits for you and your learners

• We've updated the content and added interesting topics to get you and your learners more involved with the subject. This will increase your own and your learners motivation.
• An excellent starting point for learners to develop into media specialists and progress to study the subject further with our A Level in Media Studies and Diploma in Creative and Media.
• An emphasis on practical tasks, such as production, enables your learners to start developing the skills and knowledge required in the media industry.
• Alternative ways of presenting evaluations, for example podcasts as well as written pieces. Choice of presentation can be matched to the learning style of the learner which provides them with motivation.
• A full support package has been designed to save you preparation time and to increase your confidence in teaching and marking the new Media Studies specification.
• A flexible three-unit specification can be taught comfortably over one year or at a more leisurely pace over two years to suit the needs of you and your learners. It also lends itself to innovative and interesting curriculum combinations.
