Overview
*Our Project Qualifications are stand‑alone qualifications, and a compulsory element of the Diplomaand AQA Bacc.
The three levels – Level 1 Foundation, Level 2 Higher and Level 3 Extended – are flexible and can be easily integrated to enrich your curriculum. Together, they offer students a way of acquiring sophisticated study skills and a route into Higher Education and employment.

What do Project Qualifications involve?
Projects are student-driven qualifications, giving the freedom and responsibility to select topics and projects.
Students follow a clearly structured process, during which students plan, research their topic and create a product. This is recorded in their Production Log. The product of their Project can be in one of three formats:
- a research-based written report
- a production* (eg charity event, fashion show, sports event etc)
- an artefact* (eg a piece of art, a computer game, a realised design).
*Supported by a written report.
Finally, students deliver a Presentation.
During the process, they develop as independent, reflective learners and acquire knowledge and transferable skills that are invaluable for further study and the workplace.
Students are assessed, on the product of their Projects on, the process itself.
Support
We are committed to providing high‑quality support to project teachers and have an extensive bank of resources. A Project Adviser will also help you deliver the Project Qualifications successfully when you register.
