Altrincham Campus

Altrincham Campus has a university feel, with a dedicated Sixth Form Centre, an award-winning à la carte restaurant, a professional salon and spa, photography studios and more. All the facilities and extra resources you need for a brilliant future, no matter what you choose to do.

Outside the classrooms, workspaces and studios you can kick back and meet friends in our on-site Costa Coffee and Café Retreat, or head to our library and Learning Resource Centre for some quiet study time.

Creative Arts

If you’re passionate about creativity, our dedicated creative arts centre is perfect for you. From fine art and ceramics to high-tech tools like green screens, dark rooms, Mac suites, CAD, AI, and VR equipment, you can discover a world of creative facilities. And you’ll be in great company – one of our former students, Paul Shipper, went on to design movie posters for legendary director Steven Spielberg!

Hospitality and Catering

Aspire, our award-winning student-run restaurant, has been awarded a ‘Highly Commended’ AA College Rosette for our commitment to providing industry standard training. We have also been recognised as a ‘Centre of Excellence’ for food and beverage service, and for patisserie. And our past students have gone to great things. Whether you want to be a top chef like Masterchef finalist Exose Grant, an award-winning sommelier like Alex Finn, or a pastry chef at Harrods like WorldSkills medalist Ben Metcalfe, your brilliant career in catering and hospitality starts here.
