Updated: the final few weeks of 2021/2022


Here's what's happening in the final few weeks of this half term. It  gets a bit confusing, but we'll manage.

Week commencing Monday 20th June - exam prep

This is a normal week, but in media, we are prepping for your mock exam, which is next week! You can find information on the mock exam by clicking here.

Week commencing Monday 27th June - mock week

This week is a mock week. You have a completely different, collapsed timetable. Your media exam is on Wednesday 29th at 0900. Make sure you arrive as early as possible for this.

Week commencing Monday 4th July - week off!

You are not in at all this week! This is because your teachers will spend this week doing open evenings and taster days. You cannot come in at all during this week, except for the open evenings. 

If you are interested in helping out at open evening, please email your teacher!

Week commencing Monday 11th July - final editing week and learning conversations

This week is a normal week, with normal lessons. This is your final official week of editing, and at the end of this week, you will be submitting your final music video

Additionally, during this week, you will have a learning conversation with your teacher. This is a brief 1-1 chat where we discuss how you are getting on in A-level media studies, as well as the grade you received in your mock exam, and what you can do to improve. 

Any learning conversations that we do not get through, either through student illness or timing, can be done remotely in the final week

Week commencing Monday 18th July - online learning conversations (for students who have missed one)

This week, or this Monday and Tuesday, we'll be finishing off learning conversations online, ONLY if they have not been completed in class. You may have learning conversations for your other classes ion these days. Your teacher will be working from home, so please do not come in to college: no one will be there!

On Wednesday 20th July, you're free! Have a wonderful summer, and we'll see you in the Autumn Term for more exciting media studies times!
