More Information
Our teaching for 11-12-year-old students is focused on interactive and task-based learning. You will be taught by experienced primary teachers, who are there to inspire and engage you with the subjects they are passionate about. Our courses run over a week, and during this time you will develop your subject knowledge through multimedia presentations, group work, games, problem-solving, and project work with a meaningful real-life focus. This teaching style has an increased focus on age-appropriate content and offers more opportunities for independent group work than our 9-10 courses.
Juniors will reside at prestigious boarding schools such as Harrow School and St John's Beaumont. Accommodation will be assigned based on room availability, with the option of staying in either a private room (single room) or a shared room to foster friendships. Regular room checks and a focus on safety ensure that students are comfortable and well-supported throughout their stay.

My son had a wonderful time this summer at the Winchester campus with Tom & Philip. He learnt so much and also fully enjoyed all the trips and activities. He came back fully contented!We're looking forward to sending Rishabh again next year!
I had the best experience of my life. For two weeks, I had a chance to learn and explore amazing knowledge by a very kind tutor. Besides the classes, the friendship I had during two weeks, all the great activities and relevant stuff made my experience much more amazing. I recommend it to everyone who is willing to go and see Oxford's fascinating atmosphere with a very informative course.
The best part about the experience was that the staff and the learning accommodation were good. I felt that the team was doing their best to take care of me and everybody else at the experience, but at the location were I stayed didn't have some of the proper equipment and learning accommodation to do science experiments, like a lab. At least to compensate we got to do Blooket in the last 2 sessions of the week.
I had what was probably the best week of my life at the Winchester Juniors Oxford Summer Course, all the students were kind and welcoming and I easily made friends who I am still in contact with. The tutors were really knowledgeable and passionate about their subject, and made the lessons engaging and challenging while interesting and fun at the same time. The house parents and staff were all really caring and friendly from the moment I met them. Tom and Phillip were some of the best course directors I’ve met and they were really helpful and made all the activities fun and enjoyable but still ensuring our behavior was safe, while taking an enormous amount of photos of us and replying to anxious parents’ messages. The campus was absolutely beautiful and we had many chances to explore the area. The environment was relaxed and friendly though rules were set in place, and I look forward to returning again. I definitely recommend this camp to anyone who wishes to have a wider global mindset, meet a supportive community of fellow students and staff, and to have enriching academic and social experiences.
My son loved the program. I would recommend it to other students too.
