Burton & South Derbyshire College

It delivers a wide range of courses for all ages including 16- to 19-year-olds, adults into part-time study, employer training and higher education.

Recently a 'university centre' has been developed within the college to enable students to study on franchised higher education courses, but is not in itself a university.

Performing Arts courses have also benefited from new dance and drama studios, and a stage set-up which simulates a real-life theatre environment.

Higher Education Students on professional and management courses have access to study facilities, which incorporate the latest digital teaching and learning technology.

It provides modern facilities for a wide variety of activities including badminton, basketball, volleyball, five-aside football, netball and cricket.

A Lean Manufacturing Centre is situated on the ground floor designed to replicate a factory environment.

The units offer graduates the opportunity to set up a business in a protected environment with low cost rents.
