LOCATION
Oxford, The City of Dreaming Spires, is famous around the world for its University and place in history. For over 800 years, it has been a home to royalty and scholars, and since the 9th century an established town, although people are known to have lived in the area for thousands of years. Oxford offers beautiful buildings, parks and gardens.
Nowadays, the city is a cosmopolitan town: still with its ancient University, but home also to a growing hi-tech community. Many businesses are located in and around the town, whether on one of the Science and Business Parks or within one of a number of residential areas. With its mix of ancient and modern, there is plenty for both the tourist and resident to do. Whether it’s visiting one of the many historic buildings, colleges or museums, going out for a drink or a meal, taking in a show or shopping till you drop, Oxford has it all. But, if you find you do want more, then Oxford is a just a short hop away from many other attractions and the capital city itself, London. Enjoy our English school in Oxford!
