EPQ Timeframes

​

How long will it take?

Generally, the whole process from start to finish takes about 120 hours.

​

When is the best time to complete the EPQ?

There are two assessment windows for GroundMark Learning to submit the EPQ.

These are January and May.

​

HOWEVER. to give us time to mark and moderate each EPQ we will require students to submit their completed EPQ to us by the following dates:

​

• For May submission, we will require the completed EPQ by 15 March

• For January submission, we will require the completed EPQ by 15 November

 

PROJECTS RECEIVED AFTER THE 15 MARCH OR 15 NOVEMBER DEADLINES WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED FOR SUBMISSION AND WILL BE DEFERRED UNTIL THE NEXT SUBMISSION WINDOW.

​

We appreciate that students will be starting the EPQ at different times of the year so you will need to choose the most realistic assessment window to target for completion and submission.

​

When do I get my results?

For May submissions the results will be released by Edexcel on A Level results day (around mid-August).

For January submissions the results will be released by Edexcel around mid-March.
