Starting September in style! A huge congratulations to Serena, who has been awarded the ISA Lexden Prize 2026, one of the most prestigious honours for sixth-form students across the UK’s independent school sector.

The Lexden Prize recognises far more than academic excellence. Serena was celebrated for her outstanding leadership, service, character and positive impact on others, alongside her exceptional academic achievements.

From her commitment to supporting the autistic community and leading meaningful social impact initiatives to her academic ambition, Serena truly represents what it means to be pioneering, compassionate, tenacious and exceptional.

An incredible achievement and a brilliant way to begin the new academic year. Congratulations, Serena!

A wonderful evening welcoming our parents to the OIC community

Our Parents’ Welcome Event was a chance for families to meet our expert tutors, Principal, Vice Principals, Senior Leadership Team and staff who will be supporting their children throughout their OIC journey.

It was fantastic to see so many conversations taking place, connections being made and excitement building for everything the year ahead will bring.

Here’s to a brilliant year ahead for our students, families and the whole OIC community!

Can you tell a real smile from a fake one? 👀

As part of our Head Start programme, students have been exploring how we know what we know, from using our senses and making observations to questioning how reliable different sources of information can be.

Putting this into practice, they studied facial expressions and tried to identify real and fake smiles, explaining the clues behind their decisions.

It turns out, the eyes really do give a lot away!

Yesterday, our students took part in their induction, hearing from our Principal and Vice Principals as they shared more about life at the College, our community and what to expect in the year ahead.

Students also heard from local police and healthcare professionals, with practical advice to help them stay safe, healthy and supported while living and studying in Oxford.

A great start to the new academic year and an important step in helping everyone feel at home at OIC.

Into the wild

As part of HeadStart, students swapped the classroom for the outdoors with a hands-on Bushcraft experience.

From building shelters and learning to purify water, to fire safety, tracking, natural cordage and navigating using the sun and a compass, students put their practical skills to the test.

They also learned how to prepare food in the wild, processing rabbit and pigeon before cooking their own stew and fajitas over the fire.

A day of teamwork, problem-solving and plenty of new experiences!

Getting curious with OIC Fusion.

Students got an introduction to the world of research, exploring different project areas and learning how a simple idea can develop into a strong research question.

They also got to see CAD, FEA and CFD in action, discovering some of the tools they could use as they begin developing their own research.

A great first look at what’s ahead with .

A great start to the new academic year at OIC!

Yesterday’s Compliance Day brought our community together, with plenty of new faces joining familiar returning students.

It was wonderful to see students getting to know one another, reconnecting after the summer and new friendships already beginning to form.

The OIC community is coming back to life, and we’re excited for everything the year ahead will bring.
