Following a busy summer, Abingdon & Witney College have enrolled a record number of new students for the 2023-34 academic year, and that number keeps growing! According to the Association of Colleges, this is a national trend as more and more students from across the country choose to study at colleges.
Our students’ first two weeks have been busy as they get used to a greater sense of freedom alongside enjoying some incredible trips, visits, and masterclasses.

Celebrity hairstylist Lee Stafford gave an inspirational masterclass to our new hairdressing students as he demonstrated several of his hair recipes.

Venture Vortex
Business T Level students enjoyed a day in the “Dragon’s Den” as business leaders came in to inspire our students to create a product concept and then pitch it to a panel of experts.
Beano
Students on the Oxford United Advanced Football Programme got to meet club legend James “Beano” Constable, as he described his journey from college to the professional football league.
