summer courses

[missmem]

I always hear about kids doing these uni-style courses in the summer but cannot find any. There must be some in London - any one got any info?

headstart do sciencey ones. Is that the kind of thing you are after?

No, but thanks. I had a friend whose 11 year old did a week at a university. Lost touch so don't know anything about it apart from it was in London.

my daughter goes to various things run by UEA and also the Cambridge University 'masterclasses' in her subjects - obviously this is East Anglia rather than London, but have a look at our areawebsite, might be useful links there?

before NAGTY was disbanded they used to coordinate university summer school. I believe some of the universities involved still rn their courses, but you need to apply directly, and they are no longer subsidised, so pretty expensive.
DD1 spent three weeks at Warwick doing Maths, and then a fortnight at York doing History and had a brilliant time.
