The next few weeks in A-level media studies

The next few weeks are going to be a little different, because of the upcoming mock exam (KA4). Please note that while these dates are correct at the time of writing this post, things may change.

The department and the college are operating under the assumption that we will not be returning to normal lessons until September.
