An Oxford University examination has been cancelled after a pro-Palestine protest disrupted students around 9.15am today.

The Oxford Action for Palestine group who have staged encampments since May 6 said this morning's protest was not aligned with their group. 

A member of the public, who wished to remain anonymous, said around six protesters had caused the disruption to students taking end-of-year exams in the East Writing School building of Exam Schools off the High Street.

The person on site told the Oxford Mail that the protesters "hung the flag and chanted out the window", but were then brought "under control". 

Thames Valley Police has confirmed there have been no arrests. 

A spokesperson from Oxford University said this action "goes beyond the bounds of acceptable protest". 

The spokesperson said: “The university is disappointed with this morning’s occupation of the exam schools and the absolutely unacceptable disruption caused to our students.

"We are putting into place contingency plans to ensure all students will have the opportunity to sit their examinations with as little disruption as possible.

"It is unclear who the occupying group are representing, as they claim to be acting without the knowledge of the OA4P encampments.

"While the University supports the right to peaceful protest within the law and our rules, this action plainly goes beyond the bounds of acceptable protest.”

Oxford Action For Palestine, who are unconnected to today's action, told the Oxford Mail the group would release a statement shortly.
