Ruskin College has a long history of providing education to ensure that everyone has equal opportunities to learn. The college was established in Oxford in 1899 and was acquired by the University of West London in August 2021. Since then, the college has developed adult learning provision, provided at the college site and in a range of local community centres. The college also works with trade unions to provide faceto-face and online courses to train their representatives across the country. At the time of the inspection, there were 326 learners enrolled, all of whom were over 19 years of age. Of these, 125 learners were studying trade union studies courses at levels 1 and 2, 176 were studying community learning programmes and 25 were studying access to higher education (access to HE) programmes in social science, nursing or health and social care. Most studied short courses lasting up to 10 weeks. The college has been visited twice since the previous full inspection and has been found to be making progress in the areas identified for improvement. Ruskin College does not work with any subcontractors.
