Course summary

The European and Global films are chosen to open the course to allow students to gain confidence in film analysis. They are able to develop a literacy in film form language and assimilate the technical vocabulary required to analyse these and subsequent works. The films are more recent and highly engaging and accessible. We then build on this base to develop spectatorship, ideological and auteur theories in the more challenging films.

Entry requirements

- 6+ in English 5+ in History/Geography/RS - 5+ GCSE grades at 9-5 including English & Maths. Preference to courses is given to those students who achieve a grade 6 in their chosen subjects.

How you'll be assessed

Assessment opportunities (self, peer and teacher led) in each term allow for feedback to be given and data analysed in relation to progress made. Quality assurance of student work and teaching will take place throughout the year and will allow for staff and student reflection, the feedback being used to develop the future curriculum, both in terms of film selection and in terms of timings and delivery.
