Media Studies
As the only GCSE Media Studies qualification exclusively tailored to the needs of international students, ignite your students’ imaginations through globally relevant media.
Our International GCSE Media Studies qualification offers students the opportunity to understand themselves as media users, to engage with issues and debates about the media and develop their skills in media production.
- Creativity is challenged in the compulsory coursework section of the course to stimulate your students’ imaginations.
- Our assessments emphasise the application of knowledge and understanding in both academic and practical contexts, allowing students of all skillsets to demonstrate their abilities.
- Particular care has been taken to ensure the language used in exams is as accessible as possible and suitable for students who are non-native English speakers. Find out more.
“We’re putting the learning in the hands of the student, and that creates a fantastic bridge between school and university.”
