The Extended Project is worth half of one A-Level and involves producing a single academic report. The qualification is designed for Year 13 students, though it will also be available to particularly able and motivated Year 12 students. This course provides an excellent opportunity for super-curricular development, and provides a useful area for discussion at university and job interviews. The choice of topic is free, though must be demonstrated to be academically useful and related to the student's current path of study or future career. The project develops students’ research skills, critical thinking, decision making and problem solving and is recognised by many Russell Group universities and high-quality apprenticeship providers as valuable evidence of a student’s ability of independent learning.
- To study at Beauchamp City Sixth Form, students are required to achieve six grade 5s, including at least a grade 5 in English Language or Literature as well as a grade 5 in Maths.
