The group was formed on 1 August 2016 through the merger of Westminster Kingsway College and City and Islington College.

The Instrument and Articles of Government set down the powers, membership, roles and responsibilities of Corporations in Further Education colleges. The board is accountable for the use of public funds and has a duty of care for the assets of the colleges and the role of its members is similar to that of non-executive directors or trustees. This body is advised by a clerk who is employed directly by the corporation and has access to independent professional advice.
The board meets at least seven times a year. Its size and composition are drawn from businesses, the community, local authority, students and staff.
Committees have been established to undertake detailed work:
