TKAT Oxford University Day
Posted on: 7th Jun 2024
Over 30 students from Year 12 and their teachers really enjoyed the annual TKAT , which was hosted by
College Master Professor Judith Buchanan welcomed our students with an inspirational speech about her own journey from state school to becoming one of the first female Heads of an Oxford College.
After this, the Year 12s had talks about the Oxford admissions process and personal statements, finishing with an academic taster session.
Current undergraduates gave our students a tour of the college with Q&A, and then took them to lunch in college hall.
We were delighted to invite along on the day one of our TKAT chairs of governors Dick Brown, who was a Philosophy, Politics and Economics student at St Peter’s.
In the afternoon, we visited University College. It claims to be the oldest college in the university and was founded in 1240.
The Master said that it would be great to see some of our TKAT students back at St Peter's as undergraduates in September 2025.
