Oxford IQ Academy Athena Scholars: Women's Leadership Summer School, Oxford

An Oxford residential cohort for female students aged 16+ who want a close-knit, ambitious academic experience. The programme combines political leadership, strategic communications, classics, literature, international relations, media relations and business leadership in a tutorial-led environment.

Teaching is designed to be challenging and collaborative, with a strong emphasis on discussion, analysis and confident communication.

Students are supported by dedicated tutors, take part in seminars and lectures, and complete projects that encourage independent thought and university preparation. As with the wider Oxford IQ Academy experience, participants also enjoy college-based living, academic trips, and a formal end-of-programme celebration.
