New College Nottingham - Awards

Awards

In 2002, New College Nottingham was awarded the Queen's Anniversary Prize for Higher and Further Education at a ceremony held at Buckingham Palace. The official citation for the award - in the 'Environment' category - reads as follows:

"In a far-sighted and imaginative initiative the College has played a major role in the regeneration of Nottingham's city centre through the renovation and re-use of a derelict heritage building. The Adams Building now provides exemplary education, training and business support in 'state of the art' facilities, meeting the needs of individuals and the growing service sector. Opened in 1998, the campus now has more than 11,000 students and provides over 1000 different courses at further and higher education levels from entry and basic education programmes through to professional qualifications."
