In 1938 Southport School of Arts and Crafts was founded. The two institutions were amalgamated in 1983 to form Southport College.[2]
The college today
Southport College offers a range of courses to students from Southport and the surrounding area. These courses include Diplomas, NVQs, BTECs and Access courses. In addition, Southport College offers some higher education courses in conjunction with the University of Central Lancashire and the University of Chester.[3]
