Construction Centre

At Rotherham College we have a brand new construction centre.

Bringing together Bricklaying, Joinery, Plumbing, and Electrical Installation all under one roof, our brand new state-of-the-art construction centre features multi-purpose workshops, cutting-edge CAD and VR technology and dedicated spaces for planning, theory, and health and safety lessons.

Designed to meet the needs of both learners and staff, this is where the next generation of construction professionals will build their skills and careers.

Equipment

Our purpose-built workshop has been designed together with local employers to ensure that it replicates the working environment.

  • Practical multi-use bays, with workings for bricklaying, joinery, plumbing and electrics
  • Breakout areas with IT resources for planning and theory work
  • CAD suite
  • VR suite
  • Showers and changing facilities
  • Lift for building materials

Health and Safety

The Construction Centre is a safe and clean environment, where every student and member of staff undertakes continuous health and safety training. This includes a health and safety induction and training before using specialised equipment and tools.

Students are also expected to wear personal protective equipment (PPE), which includes coveralls, safety boots and gloves, as well as ear and eye protection.
