 The
original building, the first teacher training college in Belfast,
was designed by John O'Shea and E J Byrne and opened in 1900.
That building, which can still be readily identified today, was
a fashionable mixture of several historical styles.
In 1958, to accommodate steadily growing numbers, a new wing
containing several large lecture theatres, an assembly hall, a gymnasium and
art and science rooms was opened.
In 1973 a further extension was completed comprising a language
laboratory, tutorial and seminar rooms, a home economics unit,
a dining hall, modern kitchens and a staff conference room. |
From
1994 to 1996, a major programme of building and refurbishment
was undertaken. The College now has a new library, Learning Resource
Centre, Science Department, Technology and Design Department and
Physical Education Centre. In addition, the existing buildings
have been refurbished to the highest standard.
