First founded as the Lady Byron School in 1860, the institution was originally formed from the merger of Ealing College of Higher Education, Thames Valley College of Higher Education, the London College of Music and Queen Charlotte’s College of Health Care Studies. In 1991, became the Polytechnic of West London. The following year, the Privy Council bestowed full university status and University of West London was born. University of West London has grown through a number of mergers, including with the Northwick Park School of Nursing, Riverside College of Nursing and the North West Thames Regional Health Authority's AIDS Unit in 1994, Berkshire College of Nursing and Midwifery in 1995, and with Reading College and School of Art and Design in 2004. In July 2010 the University completed the divestment of its site in King's Road, Reading, and in April 2011 formally changed its name to The University of West London
