The Extended Project Qualification (EPQ ), normally completed over the Lower Sixth year, is an exciting qualification which offers pupils the opportunity to produce a single piece of work of their own choosing, showing evidence of planning, preparation, research and independent working. This is a stand-alone qualification that can be completed alongside the normal A Level and BTEC courses. The EPQ offers unrivalled opportunities for academic extension as well as providing evidence of a pupil’s readiness for university. It is also highly enjoyable for the pupil.
King's welcomes applications for admission to the 6th Form. We have a significant post-GCSE entry into our 6th Form and places are offered based on an interview and references from the candidate's current school. Candidates are expected to gain at least a 4/5 or 6 in each subject they hope to study at A Level and overall a minimum of 5 GCSEs with at least 4 GCSEs at Grade 4. Candidates applying to study BTECS will be offered places after interviews with the Deputy Head Academic and the Headmaster.
