What you will learn

How you will learn

Learning is classroom-based and practical, combining taught sessions with hands-on project work. Assessment is mainly through assignments and a portfolio of coursework rather than written exams. You'll complete units set by Pearson Edexcel, each assessed through practical tasks, research, and production work. Some units may include a written element. Your work is assessed internally and moderated externally by Pearson Edexcel.

What you will need to bring

The centre will provide most materials. Hasmonean High School for Girls will confirm anything else you need before you start.

Jobs you could do

  • Video editor: cut and assemble footage for film, TV, or online content
  • Social media content creator: produce video, photo, and written content for brands
  • Photographer: shoot commercial, editorial, or event photography
  • Graphic designer: create visual assets for print and digital media
  • Digital marketing assistant: support campaigns using creative digital content
  • Media production assistant: support shoots and productions in TV or film

What you could study next

A Level 3 BTEC National Foundation Diploma carries UCAS points, so you could apply for a degree in media production, film, graphic design, or a related creative subject. You might also progress to a Pearson Edexcel BTEC Higher National Certificate (HNC) or Higher National Diploma (HND) in Creative Media Production, which are Level 4 and Level 5 qualifications often offered at further education colleges. These are a shorter route into higher-level creative industry roles without a full three-year degree.
