As you may be aware, following a Structure and Prospects Appraisal process led by the Further Education Commissioner, it has been concluded that Easton College should merge with City College Norwich, and Otley with Suffolk New College.
The land-based sector is a crucial part of the Norfolk Economy and Easton and Otley College is very keen for Norfolk businesses to have their say on the proposed merger and the plans for the future of both the Easton and the Otley Campuses.
The Chair, Mark Pendlington has kindly offered a limited number of places for a small number of Norfolk Chambers member businesses to attend the free consultation lunch at the Norfolk Showground on 23 September:
