About UK independent colleges

Independent colleges in the UK have real strengths and offer a wealth of educational and training opportunities.

For students, private colleges offer:

  • tailored pathways through UK qualifications, geared to individual student needs.
  • smaller class sizes than the lecture-based enviroment of large public institutions.
  • lecturers that are often more approachable and more able to give a high level of tutorial care.
  • more flexible English language support for overseas students, and assistance with settling into life and study in the UK.
  • course fees that are typically lower than those of comparable programmes at state sector institutions.
