Trip to St John’s College
We will be taking 40 of our students to St John’s College, Oxford on November 10th 2023. The trip will provide a unique chance to have an introduction to Oxford and have a university style taster session.
The introduction presentation focused on introducing pupils to the University of Oxford, the courses and societies it has to offer and the application process. It included information on financial support available at the University, the practicalities of picking a course and a college, and illustrates practical ways in which pupils can engage with their subjects outside the classroom. They also introduced the idea of higher education more broadly.
Sessions were led by academic staff at the University and are supported by current students. There was also opportunities for students to ask questions to the current undergraduates. We hope the day will go some way towards informing student’s decisions about Further and Higher Education options.
