The Extended Project Qualification is a programme offered to Lower Sixth pupils that helps to extend and develop a pupils' abilities beyond the A Level syllabus and prepares them for university or their future careers. It is a self-directed project, usually an essay that explores something the individual pupil finds interesting. The pupil plans, researches, produces and evaluates their own work. The independent learning achieved by the process is highly valued by Universities and they have been known to lower offer grades on competitive courses. Some examples of titles from the recent past include: • How are humans neurobiologically equipped to rapidly acquire spoken language? • How women’s rights in Iraq developed in the years after the US invasion in 2003. • Some Day My Prince Will Come An Exploration of how the gender stereotyping of Disney Princesses has evolved over time.
