Start Oxford team has over 10 years of experience in working with families from all over the world to help them access the best educational opportunities for children and young adults. Coming to study in Oxford is a life-changing opportunity, but it might be difficult to decide on the right course or school and organise your time here to reach the most of your potential. With our knowledge of the city and its schools and universities, we will help our clients reach their goals. World-class teaching Oxford has around 50 independent schools and two Universities. The University of Oxford is one of the oldest, most beautiful and most acclaimed universities in the world. Oxford Brookes is a leading modern university that has nearly 3,000 international students from more than 140 different countries. Together they create a culture of learning and attract world-class academic staff into the city. Whether our students enrol on a short intensive course or in an independent boarding school for an academic year, they will be surrounded by highly intelligent and motivated people from all over the world, and can make connections and friendships which will stay with them for life. Experience the city At 150,000 inhabitants, Oxford is big enough to be a bustling hub with a social life, but equally small enough to be compact, calm, and safe place. It is very well connected to London – with one-hour train ride and coaches leaving for central London every 20 mins - meaning that the capital is never too far from reach. Above all, Oxford is a historic and architectural gem, with a gorgeous town centre filled with Gothic spires, Baroque porticoes, and Georgian courtyards. The city sits on the banks of the River Thames and boasts a variety of world-famous museums, galleries and libraries. Living and studying in this city is a truly unique experience. Gain a peace of mind At Start Oxford, we focus on bespoke, individual approach to every client. We take time to understand their needs and aspirations, and we make sure families gain peace of mind by having a trustworthy and approachable partner. We personally visit schools and talk to teachers, vet accommodation options and arrange for any extra-curricular and social activities for our clients. Our relationship does not end when a student arrives in Oxford – we will be on hand to support our clients during their studies and stay in touch with their families.

Windle Trust International

Windle Trust International (WTI) challenges poverty and inequality by expanding access to and improving the quality of education and training, for communities affected by conflict, displacement, neglect or discrimination. WTI is dedicated to reducing inequalities in access to high quality education for these communities, particularly for women and girls. We have a specific focus on increasing access to education for conflict-affected communities seeking to reach children and young people who have been forced to flee or who have been denied education because of the chronic marginalisation that so often accompanies conflict. Our ability to work in insecure and unpredictable areas is one of our distinctive features. We have a geographical focus on East Africa and the Horn of Africa. With offices in Sudan, South Sudan and the UK, we combine local knowledge and expertise with international contacts and a global perspective. This is especially important in our scholarships programme, where we work in partnership with some of the UK’s outstanding universities to provide opportunities for access to world-class teaching institutions. Reflecting our values we work across the breadth of the education sector from primary schools to the tertiary sector. Our commitment is to work with communities in all their diversity – girls and boys, refugees and citizens, teachers and school management committees. We are flexible in the way we work and have a breadth of talent to draw on. Where it is the most appropriate option, we are able to work at community level to make sure that projects are on track. At other times, we will operate at a policy level, seeking to shape the broader context or drawing attention to issues that we think are important, but too often neglected. Whatever the project, we will implement it to the best of our ability.
