About this event

Are you looking to stand out in your university applications while developing skills that will serve you for life? Join Highgrove Online School for an exclusive webinar exploring the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) – a highly regarded, independent project-based qualification worth up to 28 UCAS points (half an A level).

In this session, you’ll learn about the two exciting EPQ pathways available at Highgrove:

  • The Standard EPQ – an independent research project on a topic of your choice, giving you the freedom to dive deep into an area you’re passionate about.
  • The Global Social Leaders EPQ – offered in partnership with Future Foundations, this unique option combines academic research with social impact, empowering you to design a project that makes a real difference in the world.

Whether you choose the academic focus of the standard EPQ or the socially driven GSL EPQ, both options will help you:

  • Build essential skills in research, critical thinking, and project management.
  • Gain independence and confidence in self-directed learning – excellent preparation for university.
  • Potentially benefit from reduced entry offers at certain universities, thanks to the recognition of the EPQ’s value in higher education admissions.

This webinar is perfect for students considering A levels, current A level students, and parents who want to understand how an EPQ can give applicants an edge in both university applications and future career paths.
