Worcester College of Technology is a Further Education College situated in the city of Worcester in the United Kingdom. It also has a Construction Centre located in the nearby town of Malvern. The College had its origin in a School of Design which was opened in Pierpoint Street in 1851. In 1894, a School of Science and Art was built in Sansome Walk as part of the Victoria Institute and this served as the headquarters of the College until 1962 when the new buildings in Deansway were occupied. In 1991, the College adopted its current name of Worcester College of Technology. The college also has two main sites including its Art and Design and Sports departments (including beauty courses) on Barbourne Road, about a mile from the City Centre, and at other locations in the city. In 1939 the annual College enrollment was around 600 students, most of whom attended evening classes. This has risen to 15,000 enrolled students in 2006, including 3,000 full-time students. Around 1,000 of the students are studying for Higher Education Qualifications. The college includes a Sixth Form Centre, offering A-Levels and other qualifications.
