The Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) is designed to help students to develop independent study skills such as time management, research and planning. One of the key things that the EPQ offers you is freedom of choice. You can choose a project in line with your interests or passions. Many students who have recently finished their A levels at Little Heath School would identify the EPQ as the favourite part of their studies!
You will need to present a viable proposal for your project along with a plan for your research which need to be extensive. Applications should be submitted in the April of Year 12 and the course starts in June, for completion in March of Year 13.
Your ‘product’ will be in one of the following forms: 1.‘Traditional’ 5000 word essay (long written report) 2. Multi-media presentation (electronic format) 3. A model (artefact) 4. A performance (live performance) You will also need to submit production log/diary of the process, a written report (of about 1000 words) and an end of project presentation of between ten and fifteen minutes for a non-specialist audience.
