It occupies a secure site in the heart of Cambridge’s centre. Sidney Sussex was founded in 1596 on the site of a Franciscan friary, and has educated great minds including Oliver Cromwell, who ruled England as a Parliamentarian after the Civil War (1642-1651).The college is also credited with providing many of the mathematicians for the code breaking triumphs at Bletchley Park during World War II. Sidney Sussex remains a thriving, world-leading academic community to this day.

If you are aged 13-15 you will stay at Fitzwilliam College, in modern single rooms occupied by students during term time. It occupies a safe, modern and spacious site about a mile from Cambridge’s centre. Founded in 1869 it has educated great minds including six Nobel Prize winners, with the economist Josef Stiglitz and the first Prime Minister of Singapore Lee Kuan Yew amongst them. The modern college site is also centred around a beautiful Grade II regency manor house owned by the Darwin family. Fitzwilliam remains a thriving, internationally diverse college steeped in history and is a great base for our students to expand their minds and explore Cambridge this summer.
