GREENOCK’S main college campus is to be closed until at least Monday 26 January after its boiler system failed.
West College’s Finnart Street complex is out of action pending repairs.
The college stated: “This issue means we are unable to provide adequate heating and hot water, and the campus cannot remain open while a temporary solution is installed and longer-term repairs begin.
“Our estates team are working closely with external contractors to resolve the problem as quickly as possible. At this stage, we expect normal campus operations to resume at Finnart Street on Monday 26 January, and we will provide further updates should this re-opening timeline change.
“We recognise that this closure will cause disruption. Wherever possible, teaching and learning will continue.”
Efforts to minimise the impact include classes being relocated to alternative campuses, such as Greenock’s Waterfront, or delivered online.
