How you'll be assessed

Throughout the EPQ timescale, the students record the evolution of their project in a log book. They also produce a 5000-word report and present their findings to a small group of students and staff (in a format of their choice). If an artifact is produced, a shorter written report of 1000 words is required. All of these products are assessed by the supervisor, moderated by the center coordinator, and then sent to AQA for external moderation and standardization.
