Yes. London College of Teachers Limited is listed by Companies House as an active UK private limited company, company number 12339919, with a registered office at 27 Old Gloucester Street, London WC1N 3AX. Company registration should be checked separately from course accreditation, academic partnership or teacher-licensing recognition.
Company registration and educational recognition are different questions
Companies House is the primary public record for confirming whether a UK limited company exists, its status, incorporation date and registered office. That record establishes the legal company. It does not, by itself, tell you whether a particular course is accredited, whether a university awards a degree, or whether a regulator in another country will accept a qualification for a teaching licence.
How to verify LCT UK properly
Check the Companies House record for the company, then use the official London College of Teachers website for programme information and the accreditation page for the scope of professional memberships, partnerships or approvals. If you need a qualification for employment, licensing, immigration or further study, verify acceptance with the receiving authority or employer.
What the Companies House record confirms
The public company record confirms London College of Teachers Limited, company number 12339919, its active status and its registered London office. It is the correct source for legal-company verification.
What it does not confirm
Company registration is not the same as academic degree-awarding powers, teacher licensure or recognition by every employer. Those questions require separate evidence.
Evidence to check
- Company name and number on Companies House
- Registered office and current company status
- Who issues the certificate or degree for the specific programme
- Any regulator or employer requirement for the intended use
London College of Teachers (UK) context
Use the Institutional Verification and Accreditation pages on this site to separate legal-company information from programme-level relationships and certification arrangements.
Treating a Companies House registration number as proof that every course is government-recognised or automatically valid for a teaching licence.
Practical next steps
- Open the Companies House record and confirm company number 12339919.
- Check the official LCT UK programme page for the course you are considering.
- Check the Accreditation page for the exact type and scope of any relationship.
- Ask the receiving regulator, university or employer whether the qualification is accepted for your purpose.
Bottom line
LCT UK can be verified as a registered UK company through Companies House. For a course decision, verify the programme, awarding or certification arrangement and any external licensing requirement separately.
