AS Level EPQ (Extended Project Qualification)

Your project will follow one of two routes. Most students produce a 5,000 word report answering an essay question: eg "To what extent can electric cars solve global warming?". Others choose to produce an artefact with a smaller report to explain the research process. Students have made a drum, a computer logic gate, a story in the style of Roald Dahl.

You will have one lesson per week throughout the year. Between September and January you will work with your supervisor as a group to identify your individual topics and learn how to research independently. From February onwards, you will receive one-to-one tutorials. You will complete your product (report or artefact) in June and then conduct a presentation to staff and fellow students outlining your EPQ journey.
