Chip­pen­ham Campus

Bespoke con­struc­tion facil­i­ties at Chip­pen­ham are designed for teach­ing trades includ­ing plumb­ing and gas, car­pen­try and join­ery, brick­lay­ing and elec­tri­cal instal­la­tion. Taught by expe­ri­enced and knowl­edge­able tutors, our stu­dents learn in real­is­tic train­ing envi­ron­ments with indus­try stan­dard equipment. 

The large motor vehi­cle work­shops at the Chip­pen­ham cam­pus are home to a range of vehi­cles, from the stan­dard fam­i­ly hatch­back or saloon to com­pe­ti­tion vehi­cles includ­ing a For­mu­la Ford rac­ing car and ral­ly car. The work­shops also house a diverse range of indus­try-stan­dard equip­ment includ­ing hydraulic lifts and ramps, fault-find­ing diag­nos­tic equip­ment, air con­di­tion­ing machines, pow­er and hand tools and CAD soft­ware. Stu­dents learn about a wide range of vehi­cle sys­tems from spe­cial­ist tutors with indus­try expe­ri­ence and knowledge.
