EPQ Presentation

September 27, 2016

Parents, staff and students came together on the evening of Tuesday 27th September for a special celebratory event for the Upper Sixth EPQ students. The Extended Project Qualification is worth half an A Level and is highly valued by universities because it encourages the development of independent learning and research skills.

The students chosen topics were both diverse and fascinating, ranging from the effectiveness of aromatherapy to the value of space research. Each student presented on their research journey and the findings of their projects and the audience was impressed with the depth and rigour of their research.
