Brilliant Club Scholars Celebrate Graduation

27 May 2026

130526 Brilliant ClubCongratulations to our Year 8 and Year 12 students who successfully graduated from The Brilliant Club’s Scholars Programme. Our Year 8 scholars celebrated their achievements at Lincoln College, University of Oxford, while the Year 12 group attended their Graduation Event at Birkbeck College, University of London.

Throughout the programme, students worked with PhD tutors and took part in small-group, university-style tutorials. They explored challenging topics beyond the normal school curriculum before completing an independent final assignment based on university marking criteria. The programme supports students in developing their critical thinking, academic writing, confidence and resilience, while giving them a valuable insight into higher education.

The Graduation Events provided a fitting conclusion to the programme. Students had the opportunity to explore a university campus, learn more about university life and celebrate their hard work alongside scholars from other schools.

We are extremely proud of both groups for their commitment, maturity and determination throughout the programme. Their graduation was thoroughly deserved and marks an excellent academic achievement.
