Oxbridge offers

---

Congratulations to the thirty-seven students who have been offered places to study at Oxford or Cambridge this year.

Students at Wilson’s attain places at a range of universities and we are proud of them all. At this time of year, we are particularly pleased to congratulate students who have received offers from Oxford and Cambridge. As ever, students have been offered places in a wide variety of subjects. A successful Oxbridge application requires that a student demonstrate real dedication to his chosen subject, far beyond what is taught in lessons and over a long period of time. What is tested in the application process is the intellectual flexibility, curiosity and resilience of the candidate, not recall or answers learned by heart!

Whether your son is in Year 7, Year 11 or somewhere in between, we would encourage him to develop areas of interest in the subject (or subjects) he loves, by throwing himself into wider reading. Not because of a future application to a possible university, but because it is fun and motivating to do!
