University entrants

The Perse has a strong tradition of preparing students for entrance to top universities to read Classics. Numerous Classicists have gone from The Perse to Oxford and Cambridge, receiving dedicated programmes of extension work to assist their interview preparation and transition to university. Teaching staff within the department frequently use some very challenging Greek texts to encourage and promote discussion with Oxbridge candidates.
