East Riding College

[5] At the time, the college had sites at St. Mary's Walk and West Street in Bridlington, Bessingby Way in Bessingby, Lancaster Road in Carnaby and Manorfield Road in Driffield,[6] but two sites had been relinquished by the time of the 1998–99 Inspectorate Report, produced by the Further Education Funding Council in January 1999.

Consequently, a major restructuring took place that reduced the number of employed senior managers and teaching staff.

A period of public consultation followed before the final recommendation was put forward to the Secretary of State for Education, to allow the merger to take place on 1 August 2001.

Initially, proposals to relocate from the St Mary's Walk site to a new campus at the former Hilderthorpe Road coach park in the centre of Bridlington were considered, but abandoned in February 2004 after investigating the planning issues and costs involved.

[11] Redevelopment of the St Mary's Walk site subsequently began in January 2008 following planning permission being awarded by the East Riding of Yorkshire Council in August 2007.

[14] The Learning and Skills Council (LSC) had agreed to fund the scheme after planning permission was awarded.

[15] The Beverley campus, previously located at Gallows Lane in the town, moved to a new £14 million site as part of a retail development known as the Flemingate Shopping Centre, in September 2015.

[21] In March 2003, eight students completing an International Studies Course travelled to New York for a six-day exchange trip to discover how working practices had changed following the events of 11 September 2001.

[23] Students work in a supervised environment to learn the necessary skills to become a hair stylist or beauty therapist.

[24] The New Horizons Travel Agency at the Beverley site provided a range of holidays, short breaks and events, such as concerts.

In June 2011, the college launched a condensed construction course in order to fast track people to the standard expected on building sites.
