This is the online home of our Year 11 Inspire Programme, an online course focusing on one central question each year which is approached from a variety of subject viewpoints.

The Year 12 Inspire Programme consists of a series of Twilight Sessions throughout the year at schools and sixth form colleges in Ealing and Harrow. Click here to visit the online home of the programme.

Try your hand at the many questions across all subject areas featured on Inspire Digital! Use these questions to challenge yourself in your subject area, to try out something new or to prepare yourself for an Oxford interview.

In this section we have gathered some resources for you to make use of as you navigate your Inspire journey. You will find resources about applying to Oxford, as well as super-curricular material that will help you delve deeper into your favourite subjects.

If you currently hold an offer to study at St John’s College next year, check out our subject-specific guides and our new mentoring scheme to help you prepare for the start of your course!
