Former Students Help Build Colchester Institute’s New Sustainable Construction Centre

Construction • September 22, 2026

Colchester Institute has transformed one of its 1960s teaching blocks into a state-of-the-art Sustainable Construction Centre, supported by investment from the Department for Education and Essex County Council.

The centre provides specialist facilities for brickwork, groundworks, painting and decorating, complemented by modern teaching spaces for classroom-based learning.

The project also reflects the enduring relationship between the Institute and Cadman Construction, with a number of former learners returning as Cadman employees to contribute to the building’s redevelopment.
