Warley College

Warley College

Warley College was a college of further and higher education which served the vicinity of Oldbury in the West Midlands of England. It was opened in the late 1960s and named in accordance with the recently created County Borough of Warley, and located on the main Wolverhampton - Birmingham road.

Warley College ceased to exist after July 1986, when it merged with West Bromwich College to form Sandwell College - named in accordance with the new metropolitan borough which had been formed 12 years earlier on a merger between the county boroughs of West Bromwich and Warley.

The Warley College buildings are still in use as the Business and Technology departments of Sandwell College.
