Take a sneak peak! Just four months until the brand-new Sports Centre opens as the next major milestone in our Great Yarmouth Campus Redevelopment.

The transformation is really taking shape now. The new cladding is in place, the knock through to the sports hall was completed this week, and the whole building is beginning to look and feel like the modern, high-energy space we envisioned.

We’re nearly there, and we can’t wait to show you the new sport and gym facilities filled with students and the wider community

We’re passionate about helping young people step confidently into the world of work. Our students bring creativity, curiosity, and a fresh perspective that can energise your team.

When you offer work experience, you help shape and support the skills that keep our industries thriving. Employer partnerships help our students gain the practical experience, professional behaviours and industry insights that prepare them for long-term career success.

Give our learners the chance to experience your workplace and see your craft in action. Get involved by emailing: [email protected]

At East Coast College, we were delighted to help children in Lowestoft learn about healthy eating through an interactive escape room created with support from the Lowestoft and Northern Parishes Community Partnership.

Designed for primary pupils, the escape room uses fun team‑based puzzles, such as word searches, quizzes and obstacle courses, to teach the benefits of a nutritious diet and the impact of sugary, salty and processed foods.

An escape room designed to encourage children to make healthier food choices has been delivered to schools across Lowestoft this spring.

Our Foundation Poland Turing students visited the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum, an incredibly moving and emotional experience for everyone.

They showed exceptional maturity, respect and empathy throughout the visit. It was one of the toughest days of the trip, but also one of the most important.

This journey has given our learners far more than travel experience. It has helped them grow in independence, understanding and compassion. Moments like these stay with you forever.
