Students will spend the final block of the second semester on original research either in the library or, in a few cases, in individual research laboratories. The results of the research will be presented to the whole class and teachers formally and also written up and independently marked. Library research will have a more free choice of topic but a few research projects may be offered each year and the choice of those will be limited.
