About this SuperCurriculum XTEND

Description

The Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) is a Level 3 course which can be taken alongside A Levels in some schools or colleges (but not all, so check if this an option for you). You’ll be required to complete a project on a topic of your choice. The project can be in the form of an essay or report or an artefact e.g. a musical composition, piece of artwork or dramatic project (although these must be backed up with a written report). Depending on the grade you achieve, you can gain between 8 - 28 UCAS points.

Objective(s)

An EPQ will help you develop a useful range of extra study skills, helping you prepare for the demands of university work. It is valued by higher education institutions as it demonstrates your dedication to independent learning and is often included in offers made by institutions to applicants.

Who should sign up?
