One of the Best Colleges in London
South Thames College is part of the South Thames Colleges Group, a major provider of full time, part time and undergraduate courses in South West London and Surrey. We provide an excellent learning experience to all of our learners, our latest Ofsted report in February 2020 stated: “For most students, studying at the college is hard and rewarding work. Students thrive on the expectations that staff have of them” and “students at all campuses are taught by teachers who are enthusiastic and knowledgeable and who teach interesting lessons. As a result, students are captivated by what they learn and motivated to do their best.”
First Class Facilities
A massive £100m redevelopment of our Wandsworth campus a few years ago means that South Thames College still has some of the most modern and up to date facilities in the region. You’ll be amazed by the bright and spacious building set around a central courtyard area, science labs, media facilities, gym, sports hall and a spacious library and café.

In addition to Work Experience placements students will be involved in a number of other employer-based activities, such as guest speakers, employability week and practise interviews with real employers.
