International Project Qualification – In addition to AS and A Level studies, students may decide to embark upon an International Project Qualification (IPQ). This is an extended research project conducted over the course of Year 12, with the aid of a supervisor. The final project, along with a research log, is submitted to the examination board for assessment. If passed, the student is awarded a grade from A – E. An International Project Qualification (IPQ) is highly regarded by universities around the world as it demonstrates a student’s independence, research ability, leadership, and other academic skills valued in Higher Education.
