Year 12 explored the historic halls of Balliol College, Oxford

Year 12 explored the historic halls of Balliol College, Oxford, igniting their passion as part of the Oxbridge programme!

From history, Balliol has existed as a community of scholars on its present Broad Street site without interruption since about 1263. By this token it claims to be the oldest college in Oxford, and in the English-speaking world.

The College’s patron saint is St Catherine of Alexandria. The College arms, taken from the back of Dervorguilla’s seal, show a lion rampant for Galloway and an orle for Balliol.

Inspired and ready to succeed, they left full of ambition and inspiration. Here's to the journey ahead!
