During the EPQ, you will learn to: • manage – identify, design, plan, and complete a project (or task within a group project), applying organisational skills and strategies to meet their stated objectives. • use resources/research – obtain and select information from a range of sources, analyse data, apply it relevantly, and demonstrate understanding of any appropriate connections and complexities of their topic. • develop and realise – use a range of skills, including using new technologies, to solve problems, to take decisions critically, creatively and flexibly, and to achieve their aims. • review – evaluate the outcome, including their learning and performance.
General 6th Form entry requirements. The Extended Project Qualification will start during Year 12. Students should be highly motivated and organized. These skills are essential as the majority of work is completed in non-lesson time and students will have to be independent in their approach. In order to study subjects at Advanced Level (A-Level) you need to have achieved at least 5 Level 9 - 4 including Maths and English and have met the specific entry requirements of the subjects you wish to study. In addition to the above criteria all students must achieve a minimum GCSE average points score of 4.0.
A finished product may take the form of a: • research based written report • production* (e.g. charity event, or sports event, etc.) • an artefact* (e.g. a computer game or realised design). • *A written report must accompany these options. Students must record their project process in their Production Log. The process of recording and completing a project is as important as the finished product. The Production Log and Product will be assessed. Written essays will be approximately 5000 words.
