Oxford Brookes University Junior English Day Programme in Oxford
Embassy Summer at Oxford Brookes University
Oxford is a historic University City with beautiful college buildings and stunning architecture in every style of English architecture since the late Anglo-Saxon period. Thanks to Oxford’s reputation as a paragon of academic excellence, there’s an international atmosphere in the city that attracts students from all over the world. Our centre is located on the Headington campus of Oxford Brookes University, a mix of old and modern buildings set on a large campus with plenty of outdoor space within short walking distance from the city centre.
