About the School

Magdalen College School (MCS) is an independent day school with an academic reputation. Learning at MCS enables students to study a wide range of subjects, laying the foundations for their future success.

Lower Sixth formers are given the opportunities to join MCS’s unique Waynflete Studies Programme to research an academic subject with the guidance of an external university tutor. This gives students unparalleled insight into the nature of their researched subject and prepares them for university study.
