New London college hopes to help plug skills gap


London South Bank Technical College is being built by Graham in Nine Elms

London South Bank Technical College is being built by London South Bank University and Lambeth College in the Nine Elms district of the capital. Main contractor for the £100m college is Graham.

London South Bank Technical College will have capacity for 6,000 students a year on courses including science, technology, engineering, arts and maths.

The 15 construction courses including: Brick Work, Construction& Built Environment, Maintenance Operations, Painting & Decorating, Plumbing and Tiling.

The college is hoping to help plug the skills shortage gap. Latest figures from Office for National Statistics (ONS) show there are 49,000 vacancies in the construction sector, up from 38,000 in Jan 2022.

London South Bank Technical College is part of LSBU Group, created in 2019 after London South Bank University took over Lambeth College to offer further education to 16-19 year olds as well as degree-level higher education.

Executive principal Fiona Morey said: “Skills shortages come at a huge cost, reducing the opportunities that workers have to build successful careers and to the economy. That’s why our new London South Bank Technical College is so important by training the next generation of construction leaders when it opens in September 2022.”

NuGen Properties built an extension to the rear of my property, replacing the old conservatory. I am so pleased I chose this company. From the initial quotation, through the build and after they were professional, polite & well mannered. They kept the site tidy throughout the build and kept me informed of each stage as it happened. The work was finished to a good standard and I have had nothing but compliments on their work. I am already planning for them to come back and do some more work for me in a few months. I would 100% recommend them.
