Welcome to St Helens College

St Helens College is joined with Knowsley Community College, following a merger in 2017, making us one of the largest colleges in the Northwest with a broad and inclusive curriculum and four outstanding campuses based in the heart of St Helens and Knowsley.

Every year, thousands of students join us to achieve their career ambitions, enhance their quality of life and to simply learn something new or spark a new hobby.

We have the best industry experienced teachers, who are passionate about their subjects and sharing their skills and employer links, not to mention, the very best support teams, who are with our students every step of the way.

Across our campuses, students can expect immersive learning experiences and inspiring facilities including a brand-new Hospital Simulation Ward, a Green Energy Skills Centre, and a Centre for Precision Engineering. We have exciting plans to continue to innovate and grow our campuses in the near future.

So, whether you are a school leaver taking the next step in your education journey, an adult looking to advance your career or learn something new, an employer with skills and training needs or a community stakeholder, hoping to collaborate on a project, we are the college to make it happen!
