Welcome to our Newest Member: Morley College London!

Monday 11 December 2023  
We are thrilled to announce our newest member: Morley College London 
 
Morley College London was founded to provide lifelong educational opportunities for diverse communities in London. Established in Waterloo in 1889, Morley is one of the UK’s oldest and largest specialist providers of adult education. The founder of Morley was Emma Cons - an artist, social reformer and suffragette. The school is named after Samuel Morley, who endowed a sum of money to Emma to help fund the school. In 1889, Emma opened the Morley Memorial College for Working Men and Women, the first institution of its kind to admit both genders on an equal footing. Her mission was to educate, inspire and bring people together in an inclusive and affordable environment. 
 
Morley College London is committed to their mission of realising the positive impact of learning to support students to achieve their ambitions. They value creativity, inclusion and social justice. Morley advocates lifelong learning as a vital contributor to personal and economic wellbeing. 
 
The school is located across various locations including North Kensington, Chelsea, Waterloo and Stockwell. They are located in London, England – a city known for its cosmopolitan nature, with a rich history and plenty of landmarks, art museums, literature, theatre, architecture, parks and gardens, and sports and performance venues.  
 
Morley College offers various short courses, a study programme for 16-18 year-olds, Essential Skills programmes in Maths, English ESOL (English for Speakers of Other Languages) and Digital Skills as well as offering various educational courses for adults.  
 
They offer courses in Visual Arts, Design Digital Media and Photography, Fashion Millinery and Textiles, Dramatic Arts, Music, Dance, Media Radio and Esports, Languages and many other courses.  
 
 
 
We warmly welcome Morley College London, and we look forward to working together in the future.
