Co-Location Of Shrewsbury Sixth Form College And Shrewsbury College Of Art And Technology

EDM number 1004 in 2007-08, proposed by Daniel Kawczynski on 21/02/2008.
Categorised under the topics of Further education, Local authorities: education and Schools.

That this House expresses its concern about the planned co-location of Shrewsbury Sixth Form College (SSFC) and Shrewsbury College of Art and Technology; believes that relocating SSFC out of the town centre will adversely effect the economy and atmosphere of Shrewsbury town centre, as well as the accessibility of the college to the majority of its students; notes with concern that the environmental impact of co-location has not been given adequate attention; accepts the opinion of the Commission for Architecture and the Built Environment that the building proposal is to an `unacceptable standard of design'; disapproves of the Learning and Skills Council and the governing body of SSFC for failing to adequately consult staff and students; and calls on them to reconsider the co-location.

This motion has been signed by a total of 6 MPs.
