Exciting New Facilities for Foundation (Entry/SEND) Learners

Boston College’s Foundation (Entry/SEND) Learners excitingly explored their new facilities this week, based within the heart of the College’s main Rochford Campus.

The newly renovated facilities are located within the College’s former international accommodation block, which have been turned into a specialised teaching and learning space. The brand new facilities include classrooms, a ‘real home environment’ flat, two computer labs, art facilities, a quiet room, a fully equipped kitchen and an outdoor garden. The new facilities also have adapted resources for individuals with learning, mobility, visual and hearing impairments, as well as specialist equipment including hoists, accessible changing and toileting facilities.

Previously, the Foundation (Entry/SEND) Learners have been based at the Ingelow Centre on Rowley Road, which will soon be taken down to make way for the College’s newest estate addition, Mayflower. As part of the Towns Deal, the Mayflower will be a new bespoke learning centre for young people and adult, due to open in September 2025.
