Landau Forte College is an Academy in Derby, England.

The College was founded in 1992 and its initial principal sponsors were Martin Landau and the Forte organisation. It became a City Academy on 1 September 2006.

[edit] Building Expansion

Due to the College's recent status change from City Technology College to City Academy, a greater intake for each year, plus an expanded sixth-form is required. This expansion will bring the total number of pupils in the academy to 1120 To cope with the extra students, a new "Learning centre" is under construction as of 20 November 2006. The new learning centre will include a Business Enterprise Centre, E-learning Centre, Presentation Suite, Art and Design Studios and teacher training facility whereby a classroom can be electronically via cameras and microphones to aid teacher development. The new learning centre is due to be completed by the end of July 2006. ^[1]
