Health, safety, and medical support

Trained first aiders on site, careful catering briefings, and venues that meet or exceed UK health and safety standards.

Medical

Before and during

Before arrival we ask families to share any medical needs, allergies or routines. On site, trained first aiders are available, first aid supplies are easy to access, and local NHS services are nearby. If something requires attention, we update parents promptly and clearly.

Venues

Audited in advance

We work only with colleges and venues that meet or exceed UK health and safety standards. Before each programme we complete site audits with college estates teams, confirm fire safety procedures and assembly points, and review risk assessments for accommodation, teaching rooms, and dining spaces.

Religious and dietary accommodations
IV

Catering covers kosher, halal, vegetarian, vegan, and allergen-specific diets.

Multifaith prayer rooms and quiet spaces are arranged on request.

Travel and arrivals
V

Residential Deans meet students at the airport and bring them to Oxford.

At the end of the programme the Deans escort students back to the departure terminal, help them check in, and see them through to security.

An inclusive environment
VI

Shared expectations, clearly stated.

Bullying and harassment have no place in our community, and the team acts quickly if concerns arise. Under 18s may not consume alcohol or vape.

Parents receive a campus contact for everyday questions and a 24 hour emergency number for urgent matters.
