New College Lanarkshire Motherwell Campus is a further education college located in the Ravenscraig area of Motherwell, North Lanarkshire, Scotland.

History

Originally sited next to Our Lady's High School and Fir Park Stadium in Motherwell, the original building has since been demolished for redevelopment as a housing estate.

The college moved into a new campus on August 2009, which is located 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) from the old site.[1] It was officially opened on January 2010 by the Princess Royal.[2]

The campus is fully equipped, and has an on-site nursery.[3] There are two librarys/learning centres which members of the public can use on a drop in basis.[4]
