New City College is one of the biggest and most successful colleges in the country, made up of local campuses across East London and Essex – all central to the communities they serve. The campuses have come together through a series of college mergers, designed to increase strength, quality and resilience. The result? New City College is now a firm and influential leader in the further education sector.

At some of our campuses, the college experience is tailored for 16-19 year-olds. Other campuses offer opportunities for adults to learn new skills and get qualified. Some campuses offer courses across a number of different subjects; others are specialised. What all of our campuses have in common is that courses and apprenticeships at New City College are tailored to local and regional needs and employment opportunities.
