The Learning Campus

The new learning campus will provide a major new education and skills resource, covering training from entry-level to Level 7 skills, linked to the new hospital, and focused on widening participation in education, as well as targeting hard-to-reach groups.

The project received planning permission in October 2023 and construction is expected to started in early 2024.

Alongside the delivery of the Midland Met, we are developing a new Learning Campus facility.

The project is funded through the Government’s Towns fund following the success of the Smethwick Town deal. It is a collaboration between Sandwell and West Birmingham Trust, Sandwell Council, Sandwell College, Aston University and the University of Wolverhampton.
