Ruskin College

Ruskin College offers residential adult learning to people of all ages and backgrounds.
For many of our adult learners, financial, personal or social obstacles have made it impossible for them to take educational chances earlier in their lives.
Ruskin exists to put that right.

Our Access courses offer the opportunity to progress to university to those returning to learning and our wide-ranging Enrichment programme allows you to make a confident application to university.

For us, education is about social change too. By transforming the lives of adults who deserve a second chance in education, we know that they will make their communities better places too.

We are no ordinary college. Everything we do has a social purpose and we take pride in our continued activism in search of a fairer society, which all started when we were established 120 years ago.
