Extended Project Qualification (EPQ)

All Sixth Form students are encouraged to undertake an Extended Project Qualification (EPQ). It is an extremely valuable qualification in its development of independent learning skills which are so vital in higher education and the world of work. It also gives students an opportunity to “take flight” with a topic or practical project of their own.

During the first term of Year 12 the principles of the qualification and the necessary skills are taught. Then, students are able to plan and make a start on their EPQ with a view to submitting it in October of Year 13. In Year 13 they will be supported by a supervisor who will meet them once a week or as necessary for an individual or small group tutorial.
