The college's Richmond campus traces its roots to the 19th century as a technical institute. In the latter part of the 19th century, there was no reasonable secondary education in Barnes and Richmond for miles around, except for those who could afford private tuition or send their children many miles to school. In the most populous areas of Surrey , e. Sutton , Wimbledon and Richmond parents were for the most part obliged to be content to give their children an elementary education. Richmond County was to be one of a series of new technical buildings erected or being erected by the county council in the seven principal towns of the county. The buildings occupied a prominent site on the Kew Road at the corner of Selwyn Avenue. When the school merged with Sheen Grammar School in the school moved out of the Kew Road premises leaving the Technical Institute as sole occupants of the Kew Road site.
