LCC Training College, Islington
« on: Monday 21 May 12 18:20 BST (UK) »
Hi everyone
My great uncle was a responsible lecturer at the LCC Training College, Islington 1910-1915 (Teachers' Registration Council record). I am unable to locate this college. Please can anyone help?

Hi


The Islington Day Training College, Offord Road, Barnsbury was a college just for men.

Thanks Valda.
That sounds promising. I'll investigate.

Dear Tofgem,

I have been assisting with the research of a diary (written 1936-1970s) of a woman, Miss G.H. Mears who trained as a teacher at the Islington Day Training College. So Valda's assertion that it was just for men is incorrect, at least for part of that establishment's history. Off the top of my head, I think it was built in 1903. The building is still standing though is probably converted to apartments.

There seems to be virtually no online material about this College.

The records of this training college are held by the Institute of Education (University of London): arch.enquiries [at] ioe.ac.uk

What was your gt uncles name?

I can send a few images/photos. My email: (*)
