College

Everton Football College is proud to be part of the Everton Family, a connection that shapes everything we do. Our approach to study and student experience reflects the philosophy of Everton Football Club, which has provided tremendous support to the college over the years.

Our direct links with Everton Football Club provide students with unique inspiration, motivation, and access to world-class resources, helping you to achieve your ambitions in sport, education, and beyond.

Partnerships That Make a Difference

In addition to our relationship with the club, we are proud of our partnership with Everton in the Community, one of the UK's leading sporting charities. This partnership perfectly complements our mission: to deliver the best possible educational outcomes while addressing important social issues. Through this collaboration, students gain access to a range of projects and volunteering opportunities that enhance their learning and make a real impact in communities locally and internationally.

Our Journey and Ambition

Over the past ten years, Everton Football College has been on an incredible journey of growth and achievement. We are ambitious for the future and excited about the opportunities ahead, especially in light of Everton's plans for the Bramley-Moore Dock Stadium and the ongoing development of the Goodison Park area. These changes promise to further enhance the student experience, offering access to state-of-the-art facilities and an even closer connection to professional football.
