REIGATE SCHOOL OF ART

1895 - ?

The Redhill Technical Institute came into being in 1895 incorporating Redhill Art Classes and in 1937 it was upgraded to a Technical College and the school of arts and crafts relocated to Reigate. In the following year Redhill Art Classes become Reigate and Redhill School of Arts and Crafts. Owing to growth in student numbers, new classrooms are needed at the Blackborough Road site. In 1983, Redhill Technical College and the Reigate and Redhill School of Arts and Crafts became East Surrey College and in 2002 the School of Arts and Crafts relocated from Reigate to a new building on the main East Surrey College campus in Redhill and was renamed Reigate School of Art, Design and Media and in 2010 the new state-of-the-art East Surrey College building was completed. In 2015 the Reigate School of Art, Design and Media becomes Reigate School of Art and in 2019 East Surrey College, incorporating Reigate School of Art, formally merged with John Ruskin College to form the College Group: Orbital South Colleges.
