Mathematics
Oxford College | Ages 15-17
Our Mathematics course is designed for students wishing to experience what it is like to study Mathematics at undergraduate level.
We will inspire and challenge the mathematicians of the future through exploring the world of pure and applied mathematics, as well as more advanced subjects including Graph Theory, Algorithms, and Fibonacci sequences.
The programme has a practical foundation with project work and communicative tasks, making the course challenging yet lively and interactive.
The objective of Industry Experience is for students to feel more knowledgeable about what it is truly like to work and study in their future professional field.
They are composed of interactive workshops, lectures, and active research projects guided by working mathematicians, often in a real-world environment.
Our Industry Experience offers our students the unique opportunity to visit a live workplace and witness the professional application of mathematics. The experience will broaden your horizons, give you a taste of your potential future career and enable you to discuss life in mathematics directly with leading professionals.

When a student arrives, an SBC staff member wearing a bright yellow t-shirt will be waiting to greet her/him and accompany them to our Welcome Club. At our Airport Welcome Club, she/he will have the chance to meet other students arriving, have some light refreshments and relax. After a little rest, students will be accompanied by students and SBC staff to board the coach and be taken directly to the school in a private coach.
The Shared Transfer Service can be used by students using the following flight and train times:
Flight lands on arrival day: 06:00-17:00
Flight take-off time on departure day: 08:00-18:00
The times outlined above also apply to students arriving and departing from Kings Cross St. Pancras train station.
If you book a flight outside of these times or to/from another UK airport, we can look at sending a staff member in a taxi to collect or drop off your child, but it will cost more than the Shared Transfer Service. Quotes are available upon request.
If you book a train or flight outside of these times or from another London airport, please contact your Admissions Manager for a private taxi quote. Please note this will cost more than our Shared Transfer Service from Heathrow, Kings Cross St. Pancras (& Gatwick for Earlscliffe students)
Important:
Flights must be booked on the arrival and departure dates so that all students can arrive and depart the course at the correct times.
Despite the course being quite advanced, depending on the group’s ability, the teacher can vary the degree of difficulty ensuring that all are involved and are enjoying their Maths program.
A B1 level at the very least is advised in order to fully feel engaged in our Maths programme.
Following the successful completion of your course with SBC, all students will receive a report with personalised feedback on their time with us. This is a great opportunity to reflect on all the hard you put into your academic studies, the achievements you’ve made and highlight areas of opportunities for future development.
Students will also receive a graduation certificate that will be awarded during a special ceremony of celebration in your final days with us. This is something you can take back and showcase at home with friends and family.
Students are given access to a wide variety of SBC materials.
Students should come with their own stationary, although they needn’t worry about notebooks and folders.
No required reading is necessary for participation in the course, however it would be advantageous for students to review what they have learned this year in order to feel even more relaxed about their English.
