All students are expected to finalise their proposal for the WPFD material to be produced and to send me an email to explain their project in order to be able to start production now.

We will be in the Mediacom Studio.
We carry on with our weekly press roundup. Please note these are evaluated.

29th April
We will be in the Mediacom Studio to see work in progress for WPFD for all teams.
Exceptionally, those who did not do 3 press reviews will be allowed to do this week’s review to catch up. These are assessed and count towards Continuous Assessment as for the WPFD projects. Please keep me updated about progress made.
Reminder: Last deadline for submission of WPFD projects is Monday 10th May midnight (by email). No projects will be accepted beyond that deadline.
