Three Oakham School pupils have all received offers to study at Oxbridge following a successful application process. 

Oakham School, founded in 1584, is an independent day and boarding school for pupils aged between 10 and 18 years, and they are this week celebrating the success of three students who have been accepted to Oxbridge.

Hattie, George B and George N will be going on to study a wide range of subjects, including French and Arabic, Economics and History and Politics, underpinning the broad education they have received at Oakham.

As part of their preparation, the pupils took part in regular meetings with Dr Sheppard, Senior Academic Mentor at Oakham School, and other subject specialists. They also and spent many hours honing their personal statements and reading around their subjects and participated in multiple practice interviews.

Dr Sheppard said: "This is wonderful news for the successful candidates. In an ever more competitive environment, such offers are significant achievements and the reflection of the progress these three students have made not only in recent months but over the five or seven years that they've been academic scholars at Oakham."
