The Oxford Global Consortium

The-Oxford-Global-Consortium

In 2018, a group of 15 ODA students, staff, parents, and board members travelled to the University of Oxford for a weeklong tutorial training and immersion experience. This trip afforded our school community a deeper understanding of our instructional method along with an awareness of how and why this method pushes deep student learning.

In August 2019, we expanded this program into a global consortium, inviting two of our international high school partners to join us for another week of learning, training and collaborating in Oxford. This 28-person event included 14 ODA representatives along with  14 delegates from Oxford and our partner high schools in South Africa and the UK. Read below for reflections from students, as well as details on the programming they enjoyed.

With the beginning of our third school year, ODA is excited to continue this global collaboration, and to deepen learning exchanges with partner high schools around the world!
