The EPQ requires students to carry out research on a topic that they have chosen that is not covered by their other qualifications. They then use this research to produce a written report and, in the case of practical projects, an artefact or a production. A student can take inspiration from something studied in class or something completely unrelated to their studies.
The entry requirements for students taking 3 or 4 A levels are seven GCSE's at Grade 4-9, or equivalent, including English and Maths. While a Grade 6 at GCSE is preferable for studying a subject at A Level, we will consider students who achieve a Grade 5 in the subject, depending on circumstances. 5 = English 4 = Mathematics
The evidence for assessment will comprise the following: • The completed Production Log and Assessment Record including the Project Proposal Form, Presentation Record an Candidate Record Form • The project product including a written report and any other evidence as appropriate, depending on the topic or subject area The EPQ is assessed by the course leader within the school, there is no examined component.
