ISSFT® Summer Schools – Oxford

The International Summer School for Teens (ISSFT) provides a unique experience for young people from different nations and backgrounds to study and have fun together in a choice of beautiful, supportive and safe environments. Through our unique curriculum, we encourage intellectual curiosity and support our students in developing a healthy sense of independence and self esteem. We provide a varied, challenging and exciting range of educational classes. To ensure the highest of teaching standards we maintain limited places, guaranteeing small class sizes and individual student attention. Our learning outcomes provide new opportunities for students, including the chance to appreciate different perspectives. Our main objective is to provide a world education, see our students grow in confidence and ultimately make good life decisions. We want to prepare them for the future and give them the tools to flourish. Our school takes place during the summer holidays, and fun is part of the package. As well as academic, sporting and creative classes, all of our programmes include a huge range of exciting activities to help students make friends, relax and re-energise. The long, light evenings of the British summer mean we can offer plenty of activity in the fresh air, as well as indoors. Our stunning University of Oxford campus, situated in the heart of historic Oxford, is only one 45 minutes from London’s Heathrow airport. Oxford’s unparalleled surroundings, inspirational landmarks, and modern shops and cafes, make it perfectly placed for creating new memories. Further afield lie some interesting cultural and historical places such as London and Stratford, and leisure attractions, including the Warwick Castle.
