Excellent opportunities for young people to extend themselves and be motivated to do more than just the 'required amount of study' in their academic journey. My daughter thoroughly enjoyed the research and creative thinking required to craft her essay as part of the Oxbright essay competition and we liked the very open brief of the competition. We particularly like the optimistic ethos as so much of what our young people hear is negative and full of doom and gloom for their futures - Oxbright brings a positive message of being pro-active to make for a better future, not dwelling in the mire of current problems without suggesting or exploring solutions. We need a lot more of this in our culture.
