Welcome to OIC Brighton

Oxford International College (OIC) Brighton is a private boarding school which is used exclusively by Bucksmore for our summer camps. The multi-million pound development includes everything a student could need within a stunning 80,000-square metre enclosed campus, providing an ideal location for young summer school students.

A Countryside Campus near the sea!

Nestled away in the idyllic English countryside – and only minutes from the city, coast, and international transport links – the stunning campus really is ideally located.

The college is just a stone’s throw away from everything the cosmopolitan city of Brighton has to offer, too. During your stay, you will visit Brighton Pier and the thrilling i360.
