Page Background

Ruskin College Oxford has been providing

educational second chances since 1899. Our

founders understood that education holds the

power to transform individuals and society.

We offer life-changing opportunities to adults

with few or no qualifications. Our programmes

develop students in areas that help enhance and

empower the community. Support and advice

comes as standard and whatever the personal

or emotional barrier we can help you achieve

success in your studies.

Our proud history ensures we have outstanding

links to contemporary political, social and

industry-based networks which in turn fuels our

active guest speaker and lecture programme. We

also enjoy special relationships with the University

of Oxford and Oxford Brookes University, which

provide further facilities and opportunities in

education for our students.

We’re independent, residential and based in

Oxford. Our campus at Old Headington is fully

equipped for modern learning with the latest

IT equipment, a Virtual Learning Environment

and our well-stocked modern, purpose-built

Callaghan Library.
