Edge Hill University opened its doors in Liverpool on 24th January 1885, named after the district in which it was sited. Offering teacher training without required membership of a specific religious denomination, the progressive social values of Edge Hill in the late 19th century were a precursor to the modern day Widening Access schemes. Edge Hill’s popularity and reputation grew, demand for courses led to programmes being delivered across the North West. The acquisition of space within the Woodlands Centre in Chorley in 1981 signalled a future direction, with the establishment of a fully operational in-service and conference centre, offering programmes for professionals working in education and practising teachers. T
Originally welcoming 41 students to Liverpool in 1885, over 23,000 are now enrolled on Edge Hill University ’s courses across the North West, enjoying a unique, high quality and inclusive university experience. Across more than a century of social and economic change, Edge Hill has developed from a non-denominational college to a university with an outstanding campus and student experience, reflecting academic and professional excellence.
