Harrow College and Uxbridge College merged in September 2017. A further merger with Richmond upon Thames College took place in January 2023 to create Harrow, Richmond and Uxbridge College (HRUC). HRUC is a large general further education college with five campuses situated across north and southwest London. At the time of the inspection, there were 8,970 learners on education programmes for young people, most on a range of level 1, 2 and 3 vocational and A-level courses. Just over half study at Uxbridge. Twenty learners were on a T level in design and development for engineering and 21 were on a T level in building services engineering for construction. Forty-three learners were on a T level in education and childcare at the Hayes campus. A high proportion of learners also study qualifications in English and mathematics. There were about 3,900 adult learners studying mostly at the Uxbridge and Harrow campuses. HRUC offers a wide range of academic and vocational courses for adult learners, including access to higher education courses. Most adult learners speak English as an additional language and study English for speakers of other languages (ESOL) courses. Five hundred and seventy-seven apprentices study a range of level 2, 3 and 4 apprenticeships. A high proportion of these study installation and maintenance electrician and engineering technician apprenticeships. Smaller numbers study apprenticeships in professional services. There were 851 learners with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) who receive high-needs funding. Over half of these learners study a range of vocational and academic courses across the different campuses. HRUC has three specialist high-needs offers for learners with complex needs at the Uxbridge, Harrow and Richmond campuses. The college offers three supported internships programmes for learners with high needs.
