On Wednesday 16 July, Year 12 IB students were off timetable for an Extended Essay Day.  The day aimed to give students a better idea of why they were writing an extended essay and what is required of them by revisiting the IB points rubric and looking at how to write in an academic form. 

Time was spent on focusing their title on a specific area, how to take notes, how to avoid plagiarism and how to use the variety resources available in the Sixth Form Library effectively.

Students took a lot from the day and made significant progress with their projects; including narrowing down their questions from a broad area to a focussed research question, finding appropriate journal articles to use and reference in their essays and enjoying a lovely chocolate cake courtesy of Ms Newell!
