Education Hub

Brand new education facilities for learners.

The Education Hub is the place for learners at Coleg Elidyr to access learning, creativity, technology, cooking and relaxing, all under one roof.

Built During Covid-19

The Education Hub building project, continued at pace throughout the pandemic. The work was a £1.8M project, including the main Education Hub and a bank of purpose-built craft buildings. The building was funded by many different organisations and individuals.

An Accessible, Modern, Learning Environment

As well as providing a modern learning environment, the building has also been tailored to the unique needs of our learners. With input from an occupational health advisor, there is highly customised seating – adjustable chairs, ball chairs and bean bag chairs – as well as accessible touch screen laptops and tablets.

The kitchen has four work areas, with easy access to cupboards, sinks and hobs which helps to promote independence during sessions.

Accommodation

The new hub is cool - my favourite room is the ICT suite, it's relaxing, working while sitting on the beanbags.
