Aerial footage shows incredible progress at £38 million North Lindsey College teaching building

A video shows how the construction of a £38million teaching building at North Lindsey College is progressing rapidly.

Now 71 years old, the college in Scunthorpe announced plans for the ambitious project last year. It said the new teaching block would be a focal point for its Kingsway campus and accommodate 1,400 pupils and staff, including students in the 14-16, 16-plus and adult age groups.

This video, filmed and edited by drone videographer Eye In The Sky, shows how construction has progressed from demolishing the old buildings to digging the foundations. According to the plans, a SEND area for students with additional needs will be created on the western side of the ground floor with a separate entrance.

Large-capacity dining and kitchen areas, along with an auditorium, are planned for the ground floor which could also double-up as a performance space. It is planned to be finished next year.

In a previous statement, Barrie Shipley, the chief operating officer at the college, said: “The plans will significantly improve the condition of the North Lindsey Campus, and complements recent work upgrading facilities for the launch of T-Levels and the opening of University Centre North Lincolnshire and investment in the Institute of Technology.”




Money for the project was provided from the Government’s £1.5bn further education capital transformation fund. North Lindsey College was one of 16 institutions to have benefited from the initial phase of funding.
