What is an 'Extended Project'?

The extended project is a new qualification which requires students to produce a single piece of work of their own choosing, showing evidence of planning, preparation, research and their working methods.

The aim of the project is to strengthen programmes of study for 16- to 19-year-olds while testing a wide range of skills.

The extended project will require students to:
- devise, design and plan the project.
- research, critically select, organise and use information.
- select and use a range of resources.
- analyse data, apply findings.
- and demonstrate understanding of any links, connections and complexities of the topic.
- select and use a range of skills.
- to carry out the project and achieve planned outcomes.
