Harrow, Richmond & Uxbridge Colleges (HRUC)

On Wednesday 4 January 2023 HCUC (Harrow College & Uxbridge College) merged with Richmond upon Thames College to form HRUC - Harrow, Richmond & Uxbridge Colleges.

The merger brings the three colleges together to form London's newest college group, providing even more opportunities for students, helping them achieve more, progress further and become even more work ready!

HRUC offer a broad and innovative curriculum for people aged 16+, with a small section for courses for young people aged 14-16 with our School Link programmes. Their courses for 16-18 year olds include A Levels and an extensive range of vocational and technical qualifications (diplomas/certificates) and apprenticeships from entry level to level 5.  The Twickenham site is the home to a major £80m flagship development, with Phase One now complete. Phase Two for the STEM begins this year (2023). 

What HRUC will bring to RTS:

  • Provide a wide range of academic and technical pathways not usually accessible to schools or sixth forms.

  • Provide access to higher learning skills coupled with employability and enterprise development.

  • Access to a large professional teaching and support staff team.

  • Expertise and a culture of working with state of the art, specialist facilities created to reflect real working, commercial and industrial environments.
