City and Islington College
City and Islington College (CANDI) has now been rebranded to Capital City College Group and provides further, adult and higher education full-time and part-time courses, including vocational technical courses, A Levels, T Levels and professional and academic courses at different levels.
The college was formed in 1993 through a merger of the City and East London College, North London College, Islington Adult Education Service and Islington Sixth Form College, which operated over 13 sites across Islington, Hackney and Tower Hamlets.
In 2005 the college completed a £64 million building programme, which was the biggest investment in accommodation in the history of further education in the United Kingdom. Alongside the development of the new buildings, the management of teaching and learning was reorganised, and the five centres emerged.
On 1 August 2016, City and Islington College merged with Westminster Kingsway College to form the WKCIC Group, trading as Capital City College Group(CCCG). On 1 November 2017, the College of Haringey, Enfield and North East London joined CCCG, making the group the largest further education and training provider in London and one of the largest in the UK.
The college was once spread across 13 different sites and three boroughs, and some of the buildings dated back to the 19th century. There are now four centres in Islington, each one specialising in a particular set of subjects. The centres provide study and recreational spaces, all with the latest ICT equipment for teaching and learning.
The four centres are:
Each centre is focused on running particular courses and qualifications and each has its own community of students, teachers and support staff.
In Angel, Islington, the centre building was officially opened by her Majesty's Chief Inspector for Schools, David Bell, in May 2005, the same year that Ofsted rated the college's science provision as outstanding.
