Oxford International College

Overview

Oxford International College (OIC) is an independent sixth form college offering A-Levels and GCSEs, preparing students for competitive degrees at the world’s top universities. In 2019, which was the last year when grades were awarded based on standardised external examinations, the college reached the top of the UK Independent School league tables.

At OIC we focus on a career curriculum, which gives students a competitive edge when applying to university and in their future careers. This is based around our three pillars of success: academic excellence, career and university preparation and personal development.

Joining the Nord Anglia Education family of schools has opened doors to a new, global network of opportunities for OIC students, which perfectly complements the innovation and quality in our teaching.

OIC Courses

Every course at OIC falls under the umbrella programme we call Global Strategic Pathways. This is a unique platform that we have developed over the years of work with top universities worldwide.

A-Level courses are OIC’s principal programme, during which each student follows an individualised pathway to their dream university. Fast-track one-year GCSE programme ensures that students enter their university application with a strategic advantage.
