The Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) provides students with an opportunity to study an area of personal interest or activity outside their main programme of study, i.e. other A-Level subjects.

Students plan, research, document and prepare a final presentation about their project product (essay, artefact, composition, film, etc.) and process including a question and answer session. An evaluation is completed and the final product and production log is submitted for assessment.

The EPQ enables students to develop and improve their own learning, critical thinking and evaluation skills.
