Bournville College move to Longbridge begins

Oct 06 | 2011

Harrow Green has been appointed to manage Bournville College’s move to a new £66m campus in Longbridge.

The new campus will consolidate the Further Education college’s existing three campuses to serve 15,000 students. It will span more than four acres and become a stepping stone towards the further regeneration of Longbridge after the collapse of MG-Rover in 2005. The relocation has been taking place over the summer, so that the college can be up and running in time for the new term this September.

“This is a major consolidation programme, one we are very proud to be associated with,” said Simon Compton, Harrow Green’s relocation consultant for the project. “We are working with staff across the college to project manage the move including all the material and resources needed for continuity in the new premises.”

Bournville’s new location, modern spacious premises and conference centre will enable the college to introduce new courses such as motor vehicle maintenance as well as featuring excellent training facilities for hairdressing, beauty, catering, construction and sport.
