Stand-alone fully online course with support from GroundMark Learning

​

At the start of the HPQ/EPQ you will be assigned a Project Supervisor who will be your point of contact throughout the HPQ/EPQ.

You will have 5 meetings with your Project Supervisor during the process:

​

1. Initial Meeting to Discuss Your Project Proposal

2. Review of Literature Review

3. Review of Discussion Chapter

4. Review of Introduction, Abstract, Summary, Conclusion and Evaluation

5. Presentation Discussion

​​

You will also be given access to GroundMark Learning’s learning platform which has resources specifically written to support you as you work through the HPQ/EPQ.

​

You will receive teaching and guidance to get you started, to help with planning and researching and presentation skills, and to keep you on track as you work through your chosen project. There's no formal restriction on your project topic: that's negotiated between you and your project adviser, who will help you choose a topic you will enjoy and cope with.

 

Your Project Supervisor will:

• Review your initial ideas

• Agree your working title and proposal and sign-off the Project Proposal Form

• Discuss the record of initial ideas and how you intend to develop the Project

• Arrange regular progress reviews and give appropriate feedback and guidance

• Assess/mark the Project (which will be moderated by the Exam Board)

• Oversee the Presentation

• Endorse your Project Activity Log

​​

It is, however, important to remember that the HPQ/EPQ is highly regarded as a qualification earned through self-study and research so it is important that the input of your Project Supervisor is light touch, thereby ensuring the integrity of your result.
