An EPQ is an independent research project which involves writing an essay of 5000 words or creating a product. This could be anything from an art object to a mobile app. As the project progresses, you must complete a production log to record the stages of the project and this contributes to your project result. The final component of the project is an oral presentation. An EPQ usually takes approximately 120 hours to finish. The process will begin in Year 12 with a timetable of 1 hour per week with your Project Supervisor. You receive teaching and guidance, help with planning, researching and presentation skills. They will also keep you on track as you work through your chosen project. You have the choice of what your project is on, but the final title will need the approval of your supervisor and the centre coordinator.
Minimum of three grade 7s, including a grade 7 in either English language or literature.
