Barry Waterfront Campus
This brand-new landmark campus in the heart of Barry will provide a vibrant place to learn for the whole community. Open throughout the week, including evenings and weekends, the Barry Waterfront Campus will provide a learning environment for people of all ages, from young school leavers to adults. More than just traditional classrooms, the campus will be home to real-world learning and state-of-the-art learning spaces such as a Hair and Beauty Salon and a Restaurant that will both be open to the public, giving learners hands-on experience while creating welcoming spaces for the local community to enjoy.
Light, modern teaching and IT rooms will sit alongside social spaces including a courtyard with lawn seating, an external garden terrace and a covered outdoor dining area — places to take a break, meet friends or simply enjoy being on campus.
