Student Safety at Oxford Summer Program
See how the Oxford Institute prioritises student welfare with 24/7 supervision, trained residential staff, clear safeguarding procedures, and access to medical care, ensuring a safe and supportive environment throughout the summer school.
24-Hour Supervision
All our summer programme students are supervised around the clock and are usually accompanied by our deans, lecturers, and tutors. During outdoor activities (such as educational excursions), the students are divided into smaller groups and accompanied by trained and specialist staff members.
Safeguarding Lead
At The Oxford Institute Summer Programme, we have a designated Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL) present at all times. The DSL is appropriately trained in line with UK safeguarding regulations and is responsible for overseeing all aspects of student welfare and child protection.
Their role includes:
The safety and welfare of our students is our highest priority, and our safeguarding policies reflect the standards set out in “Keeping Children Safe in Education” and other relevant UK legislation.
Deans' Availability
Our deans remain available at student accommodations at all times to provide support and ensure the welfare of the participants.
First Aid Kits
First aid kits are present on campus at all times, as well as during outdoor activities, ensuring that we are prepared for any medical situations that may arise. Members of staff qualified in first aid are present on campus and during the activities at all times.
Transportation Safety
We only work with reliable and reputable transportation companies to ensure the safety and well-being of all students during travel.
Emergency Medical Care
In the event of any medical emergency, we ensure immediate medical assistance. NHS emergency medical care is available, and we will arrange for any necessary treatments. However, we strongly recommend that participants take out comprehensive medical insurance to cover any medical care that may not be covered by the NHS, depending on the visa category.
Emergency Preparedness
We conduct regular fire drills and adhere to safety measures set by the University of Oxford. We make sure that all our staff and students are familiar with emergency evacuation procedures to ensure everyone’s safety during unforeseen situations.
