It has been an exciting time at Wyke, with application numbers soaring this year following success once again in the League Tables, as well as the building work on the £20 million re-development of the college coming to an end.

Students moved into the state of the art new Oak building to start studying after the Easter break and are now taking advantage of the fantastic new facilities. The building includes an enormous library, a great theatre and dance space, the new sports facilities, music and media areas as well as a new refectory for students. Students who enrol in September will be the first to be able to experience an entirely new college.
