“When Chichester College opened in 1964, it was with the ambition to equip local people with the technical training and skills they need to support local industry and to achieve their own personal ambitions.
“That has never changed. We have built strong links with our local employers and organisations across the region, ensuring we continue to meet their needs, supporting them to grow and flourish. and we are proud to stand at the heart of the Chichester community.
“We’ve made it our mission to change lives through learning, and our two Ofsted Outstanding inspections, in 2014 and 2020, have made it clear that’s exactly what we are doing.
