Yes! You (and your parents or guardians) will be invited to attend an online Graduation ceremony after the end of your Computer Science programme with us. You’ll receive a Certificate of Achievement, and your Tutor will write you a personalised Letter of Recommendation, which you can use in future internship, job or university applications.

What type of coding skills can be learned from these courses?

On our online Computer Science summer school, you’ll learn to code in Python, and you’ll work with your peers on a challenging coding project.

What are the best online Computer Science courses for high school students?

If you’re looking for an online course offering flexibility, access to expert Tutors, small-group learning and engaging live sessions, we’d be pleased to welcome you to the OxBright online Computer Science courses for high school students (ages 15-18). We also offer OxBright online Technology courses for middle school students (ages 12-14).

What equipment do I need in order to join the online summer school?

You don’t need any specific equipment – you just need access to a laptop or tablet and a strong internet connection. We’d recommend trying to find a quiet space where you can sit during the live sessions to focus and not be disturbed, although we understand that this isn’t always possible. You’ll also be expected to keep your camera on during sessions, as this means that you’ll be able to engage and participate better with your tutor and peers.

For our Computer Science & Coding courses, you’ll need a laptop rather than a tablet.
