The team responsible for delivering the new £26million Redcar & Cleveland College was recognised at an awards ceremony in the new building.

 

Managers from the College and the contract team received awards for what Principal Gary Groom described as “commitment, focus, enthusiasm, pride and passion of so many organisations, their teams of staff and key individuals.”

 

The three-year project was completed in September, when the College’s 5,500 full and part-time students and 250 staff occupied the new building for the first time.

 

Mr Groom said: “This landmark building changes the face of Redcar and Cleveland and the lives of so many people within the borough for now and for generations to come.”

Awards for financial support went to the Sir William Turner Trust and the Learning and Skills Council.
