Enrichment

All Students will take part in enrichment lessons which teaches you new skills and builds on your existing subject knowledge to make you stand out from the crowd when applying for university or employment. 


Progression Module   

The Progression Module helps Year 12 and Level 3 students to make an informed decision about what course or career path to take.


The module develops skills in critical thinking, research, evaluation, interview skills and presentations. The Progression Module is currently studied in over 25 schools and colleges making it one of the largest schemes of its kind.


This qualification provides 12 UCAS points for the following local universities: University of Huddersfield, Leeds Beckett University and Leeds Trinity University. It is also suitable for students who wish to attend higher education, apprenticeships and employment.


EPQ (Extended Project Qualification)  

Suitable for students studying A Levels and planning to attend competitive Universities and/ or competitive courses. E.g. medicine, dentistry, veterinary, marine biology, computer science etc.  

EPQ is an independent research project which involves writing an essay of 5000 words (that's around 10 typed pages), or creating a product, which might be anything from an art object to an iPhone app. As the project evolves, you must complete a production log to record specific stages of the project and this also contributes to your project result. The third component of the project is an oral presentation. It’s worth the same UCAS points as an AS level with an A* grade available. Your project will be submitted in year 13.   


Work Experience   

Are you interested in a vocational course such as nursing, midwifery, medicine, teaching, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, sports coaching? It’s valuable to have experience for university/ job applications.   

You can arrange your own work experience with the support of Vicky Sutcliffe will give you the relevant health and safety forms once you have found a placement to visit weekly.
