New for ‘22

Following successful bidding processes throughout

the summer, Darlington College have been awarded

over £2.75million from the Governments Towns Fund

initiative to build and kit out Robotics, Automation and

Electric Vehicle Labs to compliment the Engineering and

Automotive departments. Work will be undertaken to create

a 2 storey steel and glass facility that will be available for

students to access from September 2022.

Another £600,000 has been secured from the Strategic

Development Fund to further compliment this work

and will also create a Business Hub that will be used to

teach professional qualifications in topics ranging from

accountancy, procurement, management and HR, to name

but a few. Conferencing facilities will also be available to

hire.

The developments are aimed at helping to narrow the skills

gaps caused by aging populations and the rapid onset of

new technologies in robotics and electric vehicles as well as

being able to support the new Darlington Economic Campus

which will include the Treasury.
