Oak Hill College is a theological college located on Chase Side in Southgate, London, England. It is one of the largest seminaries in the UK.[2]

Overview

Its students are drawn mainly from the Church of England, mostly ordinands, though an increasing number come from other denominations, and the college trains men and women for a wide range of ministries, including Youth and Children's ministry and World Mission.

It has been associated with conservative evangelical theology since its foundation in 1932, and continues to have a strong emphasis on Bible teaching as the core aspect of church leadership. It is an associate college of Middlesex University and its current Principal is the Revd Dr Michael Ovey.
