Future Scientists at Headington is a two-week programme for students who want to explore science in greater depth and understand how it applies to the world around them. You’ll study biology, chemistry and physics through practical experiments, guided research and clear explanation, building confidence in how to design, test and present investigations.
The course strengthens your ability to work like a scientist. You’ll learn how to plan experiments with care, record data accurately, and evaluate results critically. Alongside this, you’ll examine current developments in science and consider the ethical and social questions that arise from them, encouraging you to think about the wider impact of discovery and innovation.
Collaboration is central. You’ll take part in group challenges that require shared problem-solving and discussion, reflecting how scientific progress relies on teamwork as much as individual insight. Working closely with tutors who bring both subject expertise and teaching experience, you’ll be supported to stretch your understanding and approach science with curiosity and precision.
By the end of the programme, you’ll have gained a stronger grasp of scientific principles and practical skills, along with the confidence to explore them further at school, university, and beyond.

Our boarding houses are modern, comfortable, and well looked after. Students stay in single, double, or small dorm rooms with shared bathrooms, plus spacious common rooms where they can relax, watch a film, or play games like pool and table tennis. Each room also has a desk and a small wardrobe for hanging clothes.
Students live in one of five boarding houses, where they build strong friendships that often last well beyond the summer. Our dedicated House Parents and supportive house teams help create a welcoming community that makes these bonds possible.
