Additional AS Level - Extended Project Qualification (EPQ). Students may also consider taking<br />
the EPQ in Year 12 - in addition to either 2 or 3 A’ level subjects. This decision needs to be made<br />
before autumn half-term. Students opting for only 2 A’ levels plus EPQ would continue their 2 A’<br />
levels in Year 13 and take European Computer Driving Licence (ECDL) Level 3.<br />
Students opting for 3 A’ levels plus EPQ would complete 3 A’ levels in Year 13.<br />
