YOUR COLLEGE
A Modern Campus
John Leggott College is proud to be one of the longest standing sixth form colleges in the country. While our campus has been here for over 50 years, it continues to adapt to the needs of our students. The college is currently under renovation, with the addition of a brand new multi-million pound extension. Our impressive facilities include state-of-the-art equipment to ensure our learners have everything they need to achieve their goals.
John Leggott College prides itself on it's ability to offer our students a wide range of social spaces to enjoy, giving learners plenty of opportunity to find a place to relax, eat or study. We have two fantastic dining options which cater to most dietary requirements along with the always popular Costa Coffee!
Wi-fi is enabled throughout the campus so students can check emails, browse the internet, watch videos and listen to music.
Parking
John Leggott College benefits from extensive parking for students and staff which is available during all college hours. Our students can access large parking facilities in a dedicated car park situated directly across the road from our campus. Students are asked to pay a campus charge to access parking.
