GCSE Media
Studies is not always to be found in textbooks. You need to take the
principles that you learn in class and apply them to the media that
you find around you. Most students have in-depth knowledge of particular
forms of media (your favourite genre of music, or movies, or video games)
and you should apply what you have learned in school to the media in
your life.

site should help you find up-to-the-minute information for your GCSE
media course. Although it relates to the WJEC syllabus you will hopefully
find it useful whichever exam board you are using.

of the media.
