Extended Project Qualification

In addition to A-levels, Sir Isaac Newton students may choose to complete an Extended Project Qualification (EPQ).

The EPQ introduces students to the rigorous process of research and allows them to apply these skills in a subject area of their choice. It is an excellent qualification, providing a superb grounding for the research demands faced as an undergraduate.
