Plans put forward for Hornchurch college refurb - including demolition of four blocks

The planning application reveals an extensive refurbishment at New City College's Ardleigh Green, involving the demolition of four buildings to enhance campus accessibility and facilities.

The Nursery Block, described in the planning statement as a Portacabin that is 'no longer fit for purpose', is set to be demolished due to a lack of demand from students.

Block A, the main focus of the refurbishment, will undergo significant renovations, including the creation of a new library, refectory, and improved teaching spaces for a better learning environment.

If approved, the demolition of C Block and W Block aims to open up space at the center of the campus, enhancing connectivity and accessibility for students.
