Directions

Our Foundation Diploma course is taught in our Vernon Street building which is our oldest site built in 1903 based in the city centre. It is just off Millennium square, behind Leeds City Museum.

Please be aware we have two sites, so don’t get confused and go to our other site at Blenheim Walk.
