Cambridge Immerse Academic Essay Competition

The Cambridge Immerse Essay Competition provides the opportunity for secondary school / high school students to submit a special essay on a topic of their choice for the chance to win a range of exciting prizes including an Academic Scholarship, an iPad, and the chance to be our featured writer of the month. You get to select the topic. The topic chosen should be insightful and engaging, and informs a ‘lay-man’ reader about a particular topic that is of interest to you. Students are free to choose the topic of the essay but it must be non-fiction (with the exception of the Creative Writing Competition). Make sure you include a title and summary.
