City of Leeds Training College, School of Pedagogy in Leeds, United Kingdom.

The City of Leeds Training College occupies multiple buildings at Beckett Park, including the Grade II listed main structures in red brick with gritstone details.

Founded in 1907 from the Leeds Pupil Teacher College, the institution transformed into a military hospital during World War I before resuming educational functions.

The college maintained separate teaching facilities for men and women until 1933, reflecting the educational practices of early twentieth-century Britain.

The institution merged with Leeds Polytechnic in 1976 and continued its evolution through multiple transformations into the current Leeds Beckett University.

The campus incorporates Kirkstall Grange, a Grade II listed building from 1752, which served as the initial accommodation for teacher training students.
