The Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) is a research qualification for which students undertake research into a topic of their choice and then develop a product with their findings. This product can be a 5,000-word written report or an ‘artefact’, such as a film, play script, lecture, exhibition or piece of art. Throughout the project, students set their own deadlines under the guidance of a supervising teacher, with whom they meet on a weekly basis. The project concludes with a verbal presentation, to a small audience, during which students honestly review their EPQ journey. At the end of the project, students should have learned how to manage their time, complete research effectively, reference sources accurately and present to an audience with confidence.
