A new £14 million Skegness College has officially opened, marking a major investment in education and training for the Lincolnshire coast.
Located on Wainfleet Road within the Skegness Gateway development, the purpose-built campus is the town’s first dedicated vocational college and forms part of the TEC Partnership. The wider development also includes new homes and industrial units, designed to support future growth in the area.
The new facilities include specialist workshops for plumbing, electrical, construction, and motor vehicle training, as well as IT suites for business courses. There are also dedicated spaces for health and social care students, including a mock hospital ward and care flat, alongside fully equipped hair and beauty salons.
Funding for the campus was secured through the government-backed Connected Coast Town Deal, which supports regeneration projects in Skegness and Mablethorpe.
The opening marks a new chapter for local learners, offering access to modern training environments and pathways into key industries across the region.
