A COLLEGE in Somerset has been awarded £650,000 to build a hospital ward and science lab.
Strode College, Street, was given the funds as part of the second wave of the T Levels Capital Fund, from the Department of Education.
This £650,000 follows the other funding the college received to refurbish their Digital Media and Technology Centre.
Katy Quinn, principal and CEO of Strode College, said they were "delighted" to receive the money.
"This has allowed us to provide our students with access to high-quality industrial standard facilities to support their learning and successful career development," she said.
"We are so pleased to have been able to transform an old, dark, and inefficient 1960s building into a bright, modern, and airy specialist centre for Digital Media and Technology because of this funding.
