Somerville has always been a proud supporter of Access and Outreach work, striving to ‘include the excluded’ and reach those students who would most benefit from learning more about Higher Education and Oxford University.

Our Access Teams run a range of events, with schools as well as individual students from our link regions. Use the links below to find out more about the outreach events we run for schools and individuals, as well as opportunities to visit us and details of how to access our online resources.

Regional Outreach

The University has established a programme of regionalisation, under which each Local Education Authority is linked to a particular college to ensure even coverage and support for all schools in the country. The link regions for Somerville are:

  • Buckinghamshire
  • Hounslow
  • Kingston-upon-Thames
  • Portsmouth
  • The Isle of Wight

If you are a teacher from a school or college in one of these areas, then please email and request to join our Teachers’ Mailing List to receive regular newsletters with Outreach and CPD opportunities. You can also use the button below to book an event with us.
