Feltham Skills Centre is a highly successful satellite campus of West Thames College with a vocational course based curriculum that responds to the needs of the local community. The project moves the Centre from their failing 1950’s buildings in the Green Belt to a new town centre site.
The new building comprises a 6 storey block of classrooms, studios and offices fronting onto the busy High Street with a range of single storey workshops running back along the narrow tapering site that overlooks the Longford River. A landscaped roof is formed over the workshops to extend the social and dining areas and the Learning Resource Centre into the natural landscape of the pleasant riverside location.
