Harrogate College, formerly known as Harrogate College of Further Education and later Harrogate College of Arts and Technology, is a further education college in Harrogate, North Yorkshire, England. It offers several levels of qualifications, including further and higher education courses. Since August 2019 and as of February 2024^[update] it is a member of the Luminate Education Group.

History

Harrogate College traces its origins to the University Extension movement, which began in 1873 under the auspices of Cambridge University.^[1]^[2]

The college was known as Harrogate College of Further Education and later Harrogate College of Arts and Technology prior to 1 September 1994, when the name was shortened to Harrogate College.^[3]

Harrogate College relocated in 1985 to Hornbeam Park, after the older Bower Road location of the college in Harrogate closed.^[2] The college is on the former Harrogate ICI Fibres site in four buildings. The college merged with Leeds Metropolitan University in August 1998 and was classified as a university; the Harrogate College statutory corporation was dissolved on 1 August 1998.^[3]

On 1 August 2008 management of the college was transferred to Hull College.^[2]

By 2016 it had 3,000 full- and part-time students, including young people over 16, as well as adults and apprentices.^[2]

On 1 August 2019 it transferred from Hull College Group to Luminate Education Group (formerly Leeds City College Group),^[4] with Danny Wild as prinicpal.^[2] As of February 2024^[update] it is still a member of this group.^[5]
