Our exceptional junior summer courses are held at Rye St. Antony School
(see location
map), only a ten minute bus ride away from both St. Clare's main site
and Oxford city centre, during the months of July and August. The school
and its grounds are enclosed by a secure perimeter wall, making it safe
for your children.
The junior summer courses fall into two age groups: young juniors age
10-12 and juniors age 13-16. This allows us to tailor classes, activities
and accommodation to the children's needs. Our teachers are selected for
their experience with the age group and their expertise in teaching. Students
are carefully supervised and our high ratio of staff to students (1:6)
ensures that the welfare of the students is secure. All courses offer
an excellent balance between classroom-based study and exciting action-packed
activities.
