Oxford Scholastica Honoured with King’s Award for Enterprise

24 Apr, 2023 | Blog Articles, Get the Edge

We’re thrilled to announce that the Oxford Scholastica Academy has been awarded the King’s Award for Enterprise in the International Trade category!

The King’s Awards for Enterprise, formerly known as the Queen’s Awards for Enterprise, are the most distinguished business awards in the UK, and have been recognising excellence in British businesses for 57 years.

Here at the Oxford Scholastica Academy, we offer transformational academic programmes both in-person at our flagship Oxford summer school and with our Online Summer Programmes.

International Oxford Summer School

We’re incredibly proud of our international student base – in 2022 alone, we welcomed students from more than 60 countries to our programmes online, and our residential summer school welcomed students of more than 70 different nationalities.

We believe that today’s students are growing up in a world of immense opportunity, but also immense challenge. That’s why our programmes and resources are designed to equip them with the tools needed to navigate the pressures of modern life, from the tech revolution to the increasingly competitive nature of the modern education system, and set themselves up for future success.

The international nature of our courses is integral to our ethos, as we are able to bring together young people from around the world, encouraging cultural exchange and mutual understanding.

Jamie, our Founder and Co-Director, speaks for the whole team here at Oxford Scholastica when he says: “We’re really honoured to win the first ever King’s Award. It’s a testament to our team and tutors who are so passionate about giving students the edge to help them succeed, find their purpose and make a difference in the world.”

We’re all thrilled to receive the King’s Award for Enterprise, and we look forward to continuing to support generations of students around the world with our summer programmes, resources, and alumni community.
