Foxley Tagg was involved in the re-development of Tresham College.

Location: Corby, Northamptonshire

Client: Tresham Institute of Higher and Further Education

Development: Re-Development of an existing school to include a 10,300m², £35m, college campus including floodlit sporting facilities.

Planning permission was granted to The Tresham College of Further and Higher Education, for the construction of an Artificial Grass Pitch and the erection of flood lighting at the Windmill Avenue Campus in Kettering.

This development forms part of the Tresham College’s programme for enhancement of the learning environment and facilities across its campuses, in order to benefit both students and staff.

The approved new pitch will be used by both the College and the local community, including local football clubs and Kettering Rugby Club.
Almost a year on and work has now begun on the installation of the bespoke 3G Astroturf pitch in Kettering. Which has been partially funded by the Football Foundation and the Rugby Football Union in collaboration with Kettering Rugby Club.

Mr Steve Kind, Director of Finance at the Tresham College said:
“We are very excited about the developments we are able to make at our Kettering campus with funding provided by the Football Foundation and the Rugby Football Union. This brand new Astroturf pitch will be a great asset not only to Tresham’s learners but to the local community and local sports teams who will benefit from having a 3G fit for purpose facility to train and play on.”
