Every building tells a story 📖

When teaching Arts and Literature, we’re fortunate to have centuries of artistic history right on our doorstep. From stunning architecture to the incredible artefacts on at the Fitzwilliam Museum, Cambridge is a living classroom for students of the humanities.

Our International Summer Programmes are all about learning – but not all learning happens in the classroom.

That’s why each course includes a programme of activities designed to broaden your child’s cultural horizons as well as their intellectual ones.
