It is aimed at dedicated students who want to move into the creative industries or further training, and are looking for a practical training and a nationally-recognised qualification. This full-time course is delivered by experienced professionals who are experts in the fields of media and television; with industry and teaching profiles.

The course is practically driven but also demands academic ability to build a solid grounding in production theory, industry knowledge, and business skills. It is anticipated that delivery for this course in September will be through some face-to-face delivery and some online delivery. We will continue to be guided by the Department of Education and Pearson guidelines.

We aim to move to full face-to-face delivery as soon as Government guidelines allow us to do so safely.
