unified seevic palmer's college
Essex
USP College was formed in 2017 following the merger of Seevic College in
Benfleet and Palmer’s College in Grays. The College’s history dates back to 1706
when Palmer’s first opened after merchant William Palmer founded a charity
school for the parish of Grays, while the Seevic Campus opened in 1972 as a
Sixth Form college. The new further education college builds on its strengths
and heritage to provide even better prospects for students across Essex. This
reflects the direction the college is taking – career-focused learning giving
students the skills employers need, with students not only gaining formal
qualifications but developing professional skills desired by businesses. We have
established links and partnerships with high-achieving universities and
businesses across the country. The college prides itself on having a unique,
safe and inclusive environment, where its students can be who they want to be;
our aim is to see them succeed.
