Gloucester Campus

Making a big, bold statement in blue, our Gloucester Campus commands an enviable location in the heart of the city, set in the stunning grounds of Llanthony Seconda Priory at the historic Gloucester Docks.

View Courses

Easy to access by foot, bike or car, the campus is not far from the popular Gloucester Quays outlet destination, where there are plenty of shops, bars, restaurants and a cinema for you to enjoy while spending time away from college.

On campus, you’ll find recently revamped mechanical and electronic engineering workshops brimming with industry-standard tools and machinery, as well as an impressive motor vehicle garage in which our budding mechanics hone their skills. The campus is also home to purpose-built construction workshops, a sports hall and a student gym.

Travel and Tourism students practise their skills in a flight room, while facilities available in our Visual Arts department include on-site TV, film and music recording studios, a dance studio, light and airy art studios and the Taylor Theatre.

The next generation of talented hair and beauty students get the opportunity to work on real clients in our on-site hair salon and spa.
