History
The MPW Summer School was established in 2022 to offer students aged 14-17, the opportunity to
study an innovative, high-quality academic programme, including exclusive content developed by
EtonX, as well as MPW’s own highly-qualified academic team. Utilising MPW’s 50 years’ expertise in
preparing students for university and beyond, the Summer School gives young people the chance to
explore future careers and traditional academic subjects in refreshing new ways, while also engaging
in modern skills-based approaches to learning such as critical thinking and creative problem solving.
English Support
Students choose one academic stream to study each weekday morning for the two-week duration of
the programme. The programme features eight academic streams covering: Advanced Maths and
Problem Solving; Art and Design; Business, Finance and Economics; Computing, Robotics and AI;
Law, Politics and International Relations; Maths, Physics and Engineering; Medicine and Sciences;
Psychology and Sociology. Students choose one EtonX Life Skills course per week, studied each
afternoon. These courses are designed to help give students a competitive edge in gaining a place at
a top university and equip them for their career and life beyond.
