It has a busy high street with commercial stores and a number of eateries. Summertown is a 15-minute ride on local transport, or a 40-minute walk from the centre of Oxford.
Accommodation: Students will stay on campus for the duration of their programme. There are a number of room options available including twin, triple or larger bedrooms. Bathrooms are shared. There is a weekly change of bed linen and laundry facilities are available. The programme is full board, and students will have breakfast, lunch and dinner in the school’s dining room.
Activity schedule: There is a full activity programme at Oxford Spires Junior Centre, which takes place in the afternoons and evenings. In a two week stay, there will be three full day excursions to an English city or local attractions. All activities and excursions will have an applied learning element, so that students are constantly able to improve their use of the English language.
Extra: In the afternoons students from Oxford Spires Junior Centre will have activities mixing with local English students from the area. This gives them the opportunity to practise their English and communicate with native speakers of their own age.
