Please note that the Pembroke Scholars programme is paused for 2026.

​

Launched in 2024, Pembroke Scholars is an Outreach programme which works with Year 12 pupils in our target regions who do not require the same level of academic intervention as OxNet, however would nonetheless benefit from a bespoke academic programme.

​

​Like OxNet, Pembroke Scholars invites pupils to participate in a variety of activities, both in person and online. These include a Study Skills Day, workshops and talks, the Dr Claus Essay Competition, and a residential visit to Pembroke. ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

​

The programme aims to:

• Challenge pupils to think beyond the curriculum, in a critical, flexible and independent manner;

• Raise academic resilience, confidence and curiosity;

• Showcase the variety of subjects on offer at degree level and the importance of interdisciplinary learning;

• Demystify preconceptions of College life and Oxbridge in general.
