Weekly classes are part-time classes open to all. Topics are studied in depth over a period of 10 or 20 weeks. They are accredited at FHEQ level 4 and course work is an integral part of each syllabus.

Most classes are offered at two locations in Oxford - Rewley House, in central Oxford, and Ewert House in Summertown. Classes are also offered in locations outside Oxford, such as Reading, Maidenhead, and other towns. (Please see below.)

Weekly Class Highlights

The Real Victoria: Wife, Widow, Monarch, Empress
Who was Queen Victoria and what emotions lay beneath her austere exterior? This course examines her public and private life, from early childhood, through to marriage, widowhood and final glory as head of the British Empire.

Italian Villa and their Gardens
The Italian Renaissance took up the idealised rural retreat of ancient Rome with gardens an integral part of villa design. Palladio's influence endured in the Veneto but elaborate Baroque innovations abound in north and south Italy. Expatriates revived and restored these in the twentieth century.
