More than a million
pounds has been invested in expanding education provision at Stafford House
in Canterbury over the last year. The extra funds signify further
state-of-the-art equipment and improvements in teaching facilities in each
of our sites.
The building and renovation work has already resulted in four new ICT
(Information Communication Technology) classrooms, a professional art room,
two lecture theatres and a drama studio. Another thirty classrooms, four
science laboratories and three common-room areas have also been completely
refurbished.
“Stafford House has been through a dramatic transformation over the last
twelve months,” says Allan Barnes, Managing Director. “We spent a long time
consulting with staff, students and our partner agents to assess their needs
and we’ve responded to their comments. We are using the latest technology to
support classroom learning and boost teaching resources. This major
refurbishment raises the status of Stafford House and helps maintain our
position as one of the leading education providers in the UK.”
Every classroom now boasts sophisticated audio-visual and IT technology
which is now being delivered via a high-speed network, thus offering the
next generation of teaching and learning aids.
Refurbishment has also been carried out at our New Dover Road Hall of
Residence. All the rooms have been fitted with en-suite shower and toilet
facilities. In every study bedroom, students can use a communication socket
to plug their personal computers direct to the Internet.
Stafford House operates at five sites across Canterbury, including the Head
Office, the
School of English,
Stafford House College, and
Stafford House Residence.
