Penwith College

Penwith College is a further and higher education institution based in Penzance, Cornwall. The college takes its name from local government district it is located in, Penwith. The college was founded in the early 1980's from the sixth form departments of the then Penzance Boy's grammar school and Penzance Girls grammar school and was known until 1990 as Penwith Sixth Form College. Penwith College is a member of the Combined Universities in Cornwall partnership. In 2005 Penwith college announced plans to relocate to the outskirts of Penzance. These plans were put on hold after a plan to merge with another further education college Truro College but now that the merger is nearly complete plans to re-build Penwith College on the existing site have now been published.
