Oxford is an international centre of learning, and as such it draws people from all over the world to study and live in the city.

With a rich mix of international academic talent, the city is simply bubbling with ideas – and this intellectual vibrancy spills out into the city and its people.

Oxford hosts a number of other great institutions, such as the Ashmolean Museum – dedicated to celebrating the best of the world’s history, art and culture, and the Pitt Rivers Museum, one of the most important ethnological collections anywhere in the world. With grand historic collections of art and cultural artefacts from around the globe, and a kaleidoscopic series of exhibitions there are few better museums to spark young minds.

Oxford is also home to the Bodleian Library, one of the oldest libraries in Europe, housing over 12 million printed works. Blackwell’s bookshop in Broad Street is known the world over and offers over three miles of shelves of new, second hand and antiquarian volumes. There is no better place for young people’s minds to flourish than Oxford.

St Clare’s is proud to be part of the the very fabric of Oxford, contributing to the city and its people. As such, St Clare’s students are encouraged through events, field trips and summer course activities, to engage with the city. These activities include the likes of Punting on the River Thames, taking part in a city-wide treasure hunt or out to the countryside to enjoy the likes of Blenheim Palace. Other school trips outside the city give students the chance to visit London, or see Stonehenge and the ancient city of Bath.

Studying at St Clare’s provides all students the opportunity to be involved in the rich history of the school and the city which has played host to it for over half a century.
