Work is underway on a new sixth form centre - offering students more choice when it comes to their education. Refurbishment is underway at the existing St Paul’s Centre at Blackburn College which will house a brand-new Blackburn Sixth Form. The redevelopment will create a self-contained Blackburn Sixth Form with drop-off facilities, study areas and classrooms, with work set to expand the existing purpose-built classrooms and teaching spaces, scientific laboratories, student hub, computing suites and café. Principal Fazal Dad said: “Blackburn Sixth Form will offer a safe, welcoming, inclusive learning environment for all students. “The development will be open from September offering a wide range of A-level courses and complementary vocational qualifications for school leavers aged 16-19.
