Summer Schools 2015 – Booking Now Open
The Debate Chamber Summer Schools, now in their eleventh year, offer
students age 11-18 the opportunity to find out more about some fascinating subjects,
prepare for university applications, meet like-minded peers and get to
grips with some tough intellectual challenges.
The material will be challenging (for the older age-group, about the
level of difficulty one might expect in the first year at university), but
the atmosphere will be relaxed, with plenty of discussion, debate, and
opportunities for students to shape the direction of classes. It is an
environment conducive to getting to grips with new ideas.
Working in small groups (usually around 14 students per group) over
several days offers participants a real chance to get to know tutors and
fellow students and to explore the topics or questions that particularly
interest them.
Highlights of Summer 2015:
The Medicine Summer School for students aged 15-18 or Young Doctors for
those aged 11-14. The Medicine Summer School has some exciting new content
this year, adding obstetrics, clinical pharmacology and gastroenterology in
response to requests from last year's medicine students.
The Summer Law School for 15-18s, now in three 5-day blocks to allow
time for more cases, more analysis and more debate on some of the most
intriguing legal questions, and the action-packed 4-day Young Lawyers
Summer School, including Mock Crown Court Trial, for those aged 11-14.
For those interested in the Humanities, we have Summer Schools in
Economics, International Relations, History, and Politics, while Arts
enthusiasts should check out the English Literature, Classical
Civilisations, Philosophy, or Critical Theory Summer Schools (all for
students aged 15/16-18).
For younger students we have the Young Thinkers and Young Writers Summer
Schools.
Last but not least, the Maths and Physics Summer Schools will offer some
challenging and exciting further study for those who will have completed
Maths AS level or equivalent by Summer 2015.
