*Summer Work in Oxford: Summer School Teaching and Administration
Positions Open to Graduates and Undergraduates*
Oxbridge Academic Programs facilitates two well established,
academically rigorous summer programmes for advanced secondary school
students in Oxford. These are /The Oxford Tradition/ in Corpus Christi
and Pembroke Colleges, and /The Oxford Prep Experience/ in Oriel
College. Together these programmes bring nearly 600 of the best
secondary school students from around the world to Oxford for a month of
academic study and intellectual pursuit. During summer 2013, students
from over 60 countries joined Oxbridge Academic Programs in Oxford for
summer study.
Oxbridge Academic Programs is seeking motivated, innovative and creative
teachers and programme administrators for these programmes. Applicants

obtained, or are working towards, an appropriate postgraduate
qualification (MSc, MPhil, DPhil). A wide variety of courses is
offered, including courses in the Arts and Humanities, Social Sciences,
and the Physical and Medical Sciences. Programme administration
positions are open to current undergraduates and include Programme
Assistants and Activities Directors.

Hello everyone,
*Wow! How?* at the *Museum of Natural History and Pitt Rivers Museum*:
we advertise it to families promising that they can 'make, test,
explore, and explode with excitement at our annual bonanza of
experiments and hands-on fun!'.
Indeed, anyone familiar with our annual science jamboree will know that
it is a VERY BIG event, with more than 100 volunteers delivering dozens
of different hands-on activities, demos, and talks, as well as helping
to welcome visitors, collect feedback, etc.
This year's event is *Saturday 15th March* (Saturday 8th week), *10 am -
4 pm*, and although that seems ages away now, there's a lot to get done
in the meantime.
Attached is a document with lots more general information. There will
also be *two briefing sessions: 5.15 pm on 9th and 23rd January*.
If you're interested, do get in touch!
With best wishes,
Caroline and Simone
