Sustainability
The College is proactively committed to sustainable development through the learning opportunities it delivers, its management of resources and its engagement with communities. In testament to this, the College gained an ‘Excellent' grade for sustainable building for the recently-built Learning and Resources Centre at the Chaffron Way Campus and is currently completing an extensive refurbishment project at the Cottesloe campus, which will further demonstrate our commitment to sustainability.
Recycling processes and a waste management programme have been successfully implemented, whilst sustainability has figured highly in citizenship and tutorial programmes, enrichment activities and printed promotional material. All paper used at the College is now purchased from forestry-managed sources (FSC) and we have also implemented a ‘park n ride' initiative in conjunction with the MK Dons.
Our Principal and Chief Executive, Julie Mills, leads from the front on the initial steps to make the College a sustainable development beacon for Milton Keynes. The sustainability agenda is an integral part of the College's mission, vision and values, and is fully supported by the Governors and Senior Leadership Team.
If you would have any comments or suggestions regarding sustainability at the College, we would be pleased to hear from you. Please see the Feedback section of the website for further details.
