Opening up the community

Designed to be a gateway that links up different parts of the community, EdCity is a £150m investment that creates opportunities for learning, skills development and work as well as homes for local people in an historically underserved part of London. The office block, 1EdCity, is home to Ark’s central team and also provides a hub for purpose-driven organisations.

The campus includes Ark White City Primary Academy and WEST, a state-of-the-art youth centre run by Onside. When construction is complete, it will also incorporate a nursery, adult learning hub and affordable housing.

Connecting Education

Located in the heart of west London, EdCity is designed to bring mission-aligned organisations together to focus on improving the lives of children, especially through education. Our office block includes commercial offices to let, a range of meeting rooms and venues for in person and hybrid events, as well as private offices and co working spaces where the education sector can connect, collaborate and learn together.
