THE first bulldozers will be at Pershore College on Monday (October 6) to begin the preparation of the site for the £5.8 million development.

As part of the new state-of-the-art development, funded from the Skills Funding Agency, the college will be transformed with a contemporary new glass building, which will house a new science and technology centre, a new Collections house, new teaching rooms and project spaces and extensive research and development facilities.

The new building, which will replace old and now unused facilities, will also provide a stunning new reception area for the college and a viewing gallery over the Collections house below.
