MP takes a look at evolving college campus
MP Dominic Grieve took a peek at evolving Flackwell Heath campus of Amersham & Wycombe College on a visit last week.
The former secondary school, which was built in 1969, has had a major transformation over the winter.
The work is set to be completed in the Spring with three new classroom blocks, a new entrance and construction skills centre.
Mr Grieve, who is also Attorney General, was interested to see how the campus was being rebuilt and went on a tour of the facilities. While inspecting the classrooms spoke to students studying a BTEC in Public Services, who had been invited to the House of Commons the day before.
Gill Clipson, college principal, said: “We were delighted Mr Grieve was able to see for himself the major changes taking place on campus.
“He was genuinely excited about what the new facilities will mean for vocational education in the region and that, with the government’s current emphasis on apprenticeships, we will be in an even better position to deliver them.”

Pity he can't find the time or inclination to help his own constituents who are being harassed by the DWP / ATOS who apparently cannot recognise Multiple Sclerosis as being a debilitating and incurable disease and are rating these disabled people with NIL disability points meaning they are 100% fit and healthy and apparently able to hold down a full time job.
