Are you a state school student in Y12?

Did you perform well in your GCSEs?

@OxfordUNIQ offers an opportunity to find out first hand what studying at Oxford is really like. Applications close on 27 January.

Good luck to all in Oxford this week for @UniofOxford interviews. Our outreach team & student ambassadors are running @OxfordMaterials interviewee hospitality- an informal & voluntary opportunity to visit us for a brief tour and chat over coffee & mince pies 😀

[Kathryn Boast @Kathryn_EB]

I've put together a mock interview pack for teachers preparing students for @OxfordPhysics admissions. It's a work in progress so send me feedback, but I hope it might be helpful 👩‍🏫👩‍🎓 https://t.co/Npldx3O3kW

I wanted to note that today is the Transgender Day of Remembrance.
Each year, for the last 20 years, the trans and gender non-conforming and our allies come together to honour those who have been killed due to their trans status.
