Reach Cambridge School 2017

Reach Cambridge is a well-established residential summer school based in Cambridge, UK. Students live and learn in the historic colleges of Cambridge University and meet students from all over the world.

We combine excellent academic courses with a university preparation program, including evening lectures, workshops on life skills and mentoring from our excellent team of supervisors. Outside the classroom, we offer a wide range of daily activities, as well as excursions to places of cultural and historical significance in England.

Our priority is always the safety and welfare of our students. Students gain independence and grow in confidence in a safe and caring environment provided by our responsible staff team.

Here are the top five reasons why our students tell us Reach Cambridge is an unforgettable summer experience:

•  You live in a prestigious university city, experience university-style classes, and gain a unique insight into university life.
•  You meet people from all over the world, learn about different cultures and make friends for life.
•  You have loads of fun, with brilliant activities and trips to the most famous places in the UK, like London, Stratford-upon-Avon, Brighton and Oxford. Find out more by visiting our photo gallery.
•  You learn how to manage your own free time outside class, from shopping and sightseeing to sport and drama or just hanging out!
•  You study in a way that encourages you to see things from a totally new perspective and rediscover the fun of learning whilst you grow in confidence.
