Plans Submitted for Ashford Learning Campus
Inspired by Ashford's historic links with the railways, architects have developed a stunning design for the Ashford Learning Campus. The plans were submitted to Ashford Borough Council on Wednesday, January 24, 2007.
The Learning Campus is being developed by South Kent College, working with partners that include the Learning and Skills Council for Kent and Medway, the South East England Development Agency and the Department for Communities and Local Government.
Acting Principal of South Kent College, Penny Wycherley, said: 'We are inspired and delighted by the way the architects have taken our vision and turned it into a design that will become a reality. We see learning as a journey and this building, with its futuristic design, its curves and lines, reflects this.'
