The Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) provides an excellent opportunity to independently research and write a dissertation on a topic of your choice. Throughout the project you will keep a log to plan and review your work. At the end of the project you will deliver a presentation. Your teacher will advise and mentor you, as well as help you develop your skills in organisation, research, presentation and reflection. • You can pursue your topic interest in depth, perhaps in an area related to your higher education direction. • The EPQ is graded A*-E and is worth the equivalent of half an A Level (up to 28 UCAS points). • Some universities will give a lower offer to students who are taking the EPQ; others will provide additional funding. • Employers see the EPQ as evidence of maturity and the ability to self-manage.
