History
Calderdale College is descended from Halifax Technical College, which formed from the Halifax Mechanics Institute (founded 1825) and the Halifax School of Art, Queens Road (founded 1859). Construction work for Halifax Technical College began in 1893 and teaching in 1896 with one laboratory, a weaving shed and classrooms. There were 1000 students, 23 part-time teachers and one full-time teacher. The college offered courses in textiles, engineering, chemistry, commerce and ‘women’s work’. Halifax Technical College war renamed to Percival Whitley College in 1957 and eventually to Calderdale College in 1988.[1]
