FAQs
Can I take the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ)?
All students are given the option at the start of September to sign up to the EPQ. The EPQ is an independent research project that can be completed alongside your ‘core’ study programme. It is highly regarded by employers and universities, being worth up to 28 UCAS tariff points.
Can I take four Level 3 courses?
Most students will study a three course programme (potentially plus EPQ) however, a small number of students may choose to take Maths, Further Maths plus 2 other courses if they have a suitable prior attainment / grade profile. Any other 4-course combination would need to be discussed with a member of the Sixth Form Team.
