Campus

The Old Mill Lane Campus is the main campus building and it has a variety of facilities available to students, including art and design studios, catering kitchens, a simulated nursery and classroom, hair salons, beauty therapy rooms, music recording studios, a drama studio, a dance studio, and a simulated aircraft cabin.

SciTech Digital Innovation Hub

Originally opened by Sir Patrick Stewart in November 2004, the SciTech Centre was home to health sciences, social care professions and computing subjects. In 2020, an extensive refurbishment project, supported by the Department for Education and the Sheffield City Region Local Enterprise Partnership, was completed, with the aims of improving facilities and the digital curriculum within Barnsley. The campus was renamed to the SciTech Digital Innovation Hub, and now offers industry-standard, high-spec computing technology to students.[2]

Honeywell Sports Campus

The Honeywell Sports Campus offers team sports as well as support for individual athletes. All sports courses are delivered on campus, as well as public services.

Construction Centre

The Construction Centre opened in September 2015, and accommodates students studying a range of construction trades. Facilities include workshops, a construction project workshop, break-out areas for independent study and classrooms with an IT network.[3]

Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) Centre

The STEM Centre offers modern facilities to students including engineering and electrical workshops, laboratory facilities and computer learning zones. The STEM Centre additionally accommodates students studying Health, Science and Social Care Professions courses.[4]

Lifelong Learning Network

Barnsley College is a partner institution of Higher Futures, the Lifelong Learning Networks (LLN) for South Yorkshire, North Derbyshire and North Nottinghamshire.[5]

History: incorporation

The 1990s incorporation of colleges brought radical changes in management style led by David Eade. Franchising on a large scale brought new funds but ultimately in 2001 financial collapse and 100+ staff redundancies (Hansard 21 June 2001: Column 226 Link) as the leadership failed to respond to changes in the funding arrangements (opinion). Stuart Spacey served a prison sentence for fraud as a consequence of actions in this period (Serious Fraud Office press release 19 April 2007 SFO).
