Our Reading campus is located in the heart of Reading at 19 and 21 Castle Street. These Grade II listed Georgian buildings have been home to the college since 1995, with the site expanding in 2003 to include 21 Castle Street.
The two buildings are connected at first and second-floor level and provide more than 8,000 square feet of teaching, study and clinical space. The buildings have been adapted to meet the needs of our students, combining historic features with facilities designed for learning and practical training.
Facilities for learning and practical training
Prospective students benefit from a well-equipped learning environment designed to support both academic study and hands-on clinical practice. The campus features five teaching classrooms, including a dedicated practical skills area with treatment couches, alongside 17 treatment rooms where students gain valuable clinical experience in a professional setting. To enhance practical learning, students also have access to a library for independent study. Outside of classes, a range of social and wellbeing spaces, including student rest areas, a kitchen and dining space, and a garden with outdoor seating, create a welcoming community atmosphere and provide opportunities to relax, study and connect with fellow students.
