About Runshaw College
Runshaw College first opened in 1974 as a small Sixth Form College with just 450 students. Almost fifty years later, we are now a hugely successful comprehensive Tertiary College with over 6000 learners, supported by over 650 staff. What has never changed at Runshaw, is our enduring focus on teaching, learning and the needs of our students, which is always at the centre of everything we do. As a result, we have developed a national reputation for educational excellence.
Runshaw College is one of the largest providers of A Level courses in the country, offering an extensive range of over 40 different subject options. The sixth-form curriculum also includes a very broad range of vocational courses, from Entry Level to Level 3. As a comprehensive Tertiary College, we also provide large numbers of apprenticeships in partnership with local employers, as well as significant adult learning programmes to meet the needs of our communities.
The college has very strong relationships with a broad range of employers, working in collaboration and co-creating an agile curriculum to address skills shortages and develop the highly-skilled and employable workforce of the future. Students consistently achieve some of the strongest outcomes nationally, and progress in large numbers to prestigious destinations including Oxford and Cambridge Universities, Medicine, Dentistry and Veterinary Science courses, and prestigious conservatoires.
