Preparation for Oxford and Cambridge Universities

Our Oxbridge Preparation programme is designed to support our most able students in gaining admission to Oxford and Cambridge Universities. We offer guidance through every aspect of the application process, starting with which course and a college to aim for, through to understanding the systems in place, culminating in the interview itself.

Our Oxbridge Preparation includes:

  • Intensive academic preparation – Our small class sizes ensure that every student is given the support and guidance they need to realise their objectives. Students on the Oxbridge Preparation programme will be given a personalised study plan, which is integrated into the general programme.
  • Personalised study plans – Students receive one-to-one tuition with the Director of Studies and are set an individual study plan that extends beyond the regular scope of the A level curriculum. Not only does this additional study encourage students to get the best possible A level results, but it also allows them to explore the subject in greater depth.
  • Interview practice – Students are given rigorous interview training, either individually or in small groups, to replicate the Oxbridge interview process and make students comfortable in this environment.
