Trow­bridge Campus

The cam­pus is home to a fan­tas­tic range of cre­ative arts pro­grammes for school leavers, includ­ing Art and Design, Games Devel­op­ment, Film, Media, Music and Per­form­ing Arts. 

Deliv­ered by expe­ri­enced, spe­cial­ist tutors in our indus­try-stan­dard work­shops, class­rooms and stu­dios, our cours­es are a great intro­duc­tion to the cre­ative industries. 

The media divi­sion is home to a ded­i­cat­ed Mac Suite, a chro­ma key (green screen) pro­duc­tion stu­dio and spe­cial­ist games devel­op­ment suites equipped with the lat­est soft­ware. Art and Design stu­dents use a range of stu­dios, a dark room facil­i­ty and 3D work­shop, print screen work­shop and fash­ion and tex­tiles stu­dio, as well as the oppor­tu­ni­ty to use com­put­er rooms with access to a range of cre­ative software. 

Stu­dents on the Foun­da­tion Art and Design pro­gramme have access to a spe­cial­ist facil­i­ty in their own build­ing, which includes light and spa­cious stu­dios and ded­i­cat­ed indi­vid­ual work­ing spaces. 

The new con­struc­tion facil­i­ties at Trow­bridge, in their own ded­i­cat­ed build­ing at the rear of the cam­pus, 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 Trow­bridge are home to a range of vehi­cles for stu­dents to learn and train with, from fam­i­ly hatch­backs to HGVs.

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. 

Con­struc­tion Indus­try Train­ing Board (CITB)

The CITB is a part­ner in the Sec­tor Skills Coun­cil for the con­struc­tion indus­try in Eng­land, Scot­land and Wales. Its job is to work with indus­try to encour­age train­ing, help­ing build a safe, pro­fes­sion­al and ful­ly qual­i­fied work­force. The Col­lege trains CITB appren­tices in con­struc­tion-relat­ed subjects.
