The college was formed in September 2011 by the merger of Barry College and Coleg Glan Hafren. The merger was a result of the Welsh Assembly Government encouraging colleges in Wales to collaborate so that it could maximise benefits for students. Cardiff and Vale College (or Coleg Caerdydd a’r Fro) is now one of the largest colleges in Wales. The College took control of the Cardiff International Sports Stadium from July 2015 on a peppercorn rent to Cardiff Council
