epq ideas

First of all, how do I go about /doing/ an EPQ? I've never heard of it before today, and it's most likely too late into y13 (y12) for me to start it now, so I'll most likely start it in y14.
I would also like to know if my EPQ ideas are too cliche.
Idea One: The Silver Spoon Ceiling
I'm looking to do law, so this project would essentially examine the gap between female, working class background barristers against the male, privately educated elite barrister (which is where the title comes from--being born with a silver spoon in your mouth means you were born privileged and rich.)

Idea Two: Neutrality in Politics--is it truly possible?
Again, this would also touch on the judiciary, but this would be examining the role of the Speaker of the House, (we've all seen what happened with Sir Lindsay Hoyle, I assume)

so yeah, I kind of need help on starting the epq and choosing an idea :,)

hey!! your initial 2 ideas would make a great EPQ, maybe do a little bit more research into both and then choose the topic with more of a debate
basically the EPQ has a couple of key components:
Does your school have a teacher who is specifically in charge of EPQ? if yes, get in touch with them and they should be able to help start you on the right track.
Also, you will need a teacher to act as your supervisor - basically to give you feedback and present your research to etc - your supervisor tends to be a teacher who doesn't teach the subject that your EPQ most closely ties to (so, in your case, not a history/politics teacher). for example, my supervisor is a PE teacher.
good luck!

Thank you so much again!
The more I look into it the more I realise it may just not really be common with Northern Irish students, but I can still do it hehehe
I'll look at all these sources!
