Maple Terrace

The non‐polytechnic part of Newcastle's further education sector is to be centred on a site abutting the Charles Trevelyan Technical College, a new building (1964) with a 1967 extension, about a mile and a quarter from the civic centre and polytechnic campus. To a point nothing could be more fitting. For Charles Trevelyan is a college deep within the traditional role of median‐level further education with a technical bias. Indeed Mr J. H. Innes, the principal, not only does not duck the word ‘technical’ in the college's title; he is proud of it. With only 77 full‐time students against 3200 day students, and almost 1100 evening‐only students the college is among the top half‐dozen building colleges in the country and as such has previously undertaken work up to Higher National Certificate in building.
