Oxford Sixth Form College

Part of the Nord Anglia Education family of schools, Oxford Sixth Form College is a non-selective day and boarding college for students aged 15-19, located in the University city of Oxford. We offer flexible A-Level courses, a one-year GCSE and a Pre-A-Level programme. For students looking for a more practical approach to learning, we offer a highly-regarded BTEC Business programme.

Established in 1988, the College has gained an excellent reputation for providing effective preparation for public examinations and university entry, achieved by thorough, exam-specific teaching and close attention to the needs of each student. We strongly believe that one size really does not fit all and we have a fantastic track record in helping individual students achieve their best.

Our exam results in 2019 propelled us to the top 1% of schools and colleges in England for progress at A-Level and 2021 saw 61% of students gaining entry to their first-choice university. Our BTEC students consistently achieve over 80% A*/A equivalent.

Oxford Sixth Form College offers an environment quite different from that of a traditional school. The teaching approach is refreshingly interactive and informal. The emphasis on small group work enables a clear focus on individual needs and learning styles and a variation of pace and emphasis, which helps students to approach their work calmly and objectively.

The support provided both by subject tutors and each student’s Senior Tutor is thoughtful and creative and students are encouraged at every stage to take an active part in the learning process through self-motivation, involvement, personal study and research – all invaluable preparation for higher education.

With a cohort made up of over forty nationalities, we celebrate and welcome the cultural diversity, ambition and global outlook that international students bring to the college and aim to give international students the best UK education experience; over a quarter of our students are British. Our college is friendly, welcoming and a home away from home for young people of many different cultures. There are plenty of social events throughout the year to help students to get to know their peers.

Our students progress to a wide range of degree programmes at top U.K. universities including business management, economics, mathematics, engineering, computer science, medicine, law, art, history, and international relations.

Our location, just an hour from London and in the very heart of the city of Oxford, with neighbours including University of Oxford colleges Oriel and Christchurch, is steeped in academic history and one that serves to inspire our students and us to build a successful future.

At Oxford Sixth Form College we understand that every student has different aspirations and abilities and, through a focused interview process, small class sizes and individual holistic support from Senior Tutors, we provide an environment in which students can really thrive and pursue their own personal path.
