Study Skills

Course summary

This subject is offered in addition to the mainstream subjects and is taken during Year 12. The course aims to provide students with the opportunity to research their own area of academic interest and to write this up as a 5,000-6,000 word dissertation or investigation paper. This course is specifically helpful to students considering Oxbridge and Russell Group universities, medicine, law or social sciences degrees. Students independently research a project topic of interest or relevance to them academically and reflect on the process of writing a dissertation.
