The EPQ is designed to give students the skills needed for independent study and therefore prepare them for higher education or a higher level apprenticeship. The course aims to help students to develop their abilities beyond A level. This course is a way of gaining an AS equivalent qualification in an area that students have selected themselves. It is a good opportunity for students to really stretch themselves and show their capability in a range of disciplines which will prepare them for their progression after they leave school.
Majority of GCSEs Grade 5 and above.
Assessment is by production of an artefact or a 5,000 word essay and a presentation. You will also be required to keep a log of your project which will need submitting with evaluating comments added as to what you changed and how well the project progressed. You will be assessed by your supervisor throughout the course and will have to show evidence of taking their supervisor’s points into account throughout the course.
