Student Voice

Media permeates every area of our lives, from the content we consume and create on our mobile phones, through to television, cinema and the visual images that surround us.

It is also a major employer in the UK, with a myriad of jobs in everything from TV, video and film production, through to journalism and visual marketing. The media business contributes billions of pounds to the UK economy and that amount grows every year. It is a young industry, hungry for new talent and keen to harness the digital skills and creativity of the kind of students who opt for this area of study. We are looking for students who are creative, talented, passionate, hard-working and ambitious and who can really benefit from working alongside industry professionals to develop their skills and build their future. If you are the kind of person who watches the TV and is interested in its production, loves the style and technical skill of cinema and photography or who wants to tell stories with words and pictures, this could be where your future lies. Your ambition may be to join the UK’s world leading visual effects industry developing next generation CGI, or you may want to make the kind of ground breaking documentaries that change the way people think. You could find your path in front of, or behind, a camera – in conventional film, TV or photography or making waves on the internet. Media is at the very forefront of new technology, creativity and innovation; it is a constantly evolving world and a very exciting one.

Student Profile

Lola studied A Levels in Film Studies, Media Studies and Photography at Henley, and was the 2022 Education Award winner for Film Studies. “What I enjoyed most about life as a student at The Henley College was studying the subjects I loved, as well as meeting new people. I was able to learn more about specialised topics I’m very interested in, and the College has helped me get ready for university by teaching me the subject I’m going to study further. I felt so unbelievably happy to win the Education Award – it’s a great way to end my two years at the college.”

Lola came to The Henley College from Royal Masonic School for Girls and is progressing on to university.
