The new Crown Woods College successfully opened on 26th April 2011.

 

The campus is already proving to be a major hit with students with all new ICT, technical and sport facilities for them to enjoy. The whole campus is wireless enabled.

 

Students have settled into their ‘home’ mini schools well with positive relationships being established with staff. The arrangement of the mini-schools, with a maximum of 450 students in each, allows for a calm purposeful working atmosphere in each building.

 

Below is a summary of the buildings and the facilities available:

 

 

These are 11-16 schools with an annual intake of 90 students. Each school is the ‘home’ school for the 450 students who attend and in these schools they will study English, Maths, Science, ICT,  Languages and Humanities. Each school has 3 science laboratories, a specially fitted ICT room, an ICT lecture room and 7 general classrooms (9 in Delamere).
