In June 2022, Aquinas College set out to explore the possibility of expanding our campus with additional classrooms to enhance the educational experience we provide to our students. A dedicated team was assembled, and a feasibility study was conducted with architects and consultants to assess the project’s viability. Once feasibility was confirmed, we began the process of selecting architects, project managers, and building contractors, and construction soon followed.
Now, in build week 39, this ambitious £4 million project is nearing completion and is set to welcome staff and students upon their return after the Christmas break.
The new building has been thoughtfully designed to complement our existing main campus building structure and will feature ten spacious classrooms and a learning area capable of accommodating approximately 300 students. Aquinas College is proud to announce that the building has been constructed to Net Zero standards, with an impressive energy performance rating of “A.” This achievement aligns with our commitment to reaching our Net Zero and carbon reduction goals.
