Oxford International College, Shanghai is a boarding school located in the Hongkou District in central Shanghai. The UK National Curriculum is followed, teaching A-Level courses to prepare students for entry into British universities. The teaching is done in small classes but, like the Oxford campus, individual tuition is given to students who need it. In addition, each student is allocated a personal tutor, who is responsible fo keeping track of their student's academic progress and general well-being.
The focus of the school is in providing Chinese students with a high-standard British education. It is also the first school to attract students from the UK to study in China.
"Year Abroad" Programme
After completing one year at the Shanghai campus, students have the option of completing their A-level course in the Oxford campus. This is a popular programme due to the cross-cultural aspect along with the smaller class sizes provided in Oxford.
