2 · The school
Live at UCL, learn in central London
Residential students stay at UCL’s Ramsay Hall in Fitzrovia, a University College London residence in the heart of the city, in single rooms with en-suite bathrooms.
Guardians and security are on site 24/7, with daily evening activities, all meals, and bedding and towels provided.
Each cohort is small – 5 to 10 students – and mixes around 70% British and 30% international students, so everyone works in English alongside UK teenagers.
3 · The programme
Try your future career before you choose it
These career camps bridge theory and practice. Students don’t just hear about careers – they experience them, with real tools, real workplaces and real professionals.
Each week combines subject workshops, hands-on career simulations and visits outside the classroom, including an industry day with a leading company. Students leave with a clear view of their university and career options.
