The University of Oxford has reclaimed its top spot in a UK-wide league table after 12 years, beating the likes of Cambridge and London School of Economics.

Although Oxford did miss out on The Times and The Sunday Times' University of the Year title, which was won by the University of Bath.

Second place went to the University of St Andrews, last year's winners, and the University of Cambridge came in third.

The universities are rated on a number of factors, including 'Teaching excellence', 'Student satisfaction' and how many graduates end up in professional jobs or graduate-level study.
