Why not just make this a redirect? It would not require deletion. --Salix alba (talk) 21:46, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

Good point. However if anyone wants this (longer) name to be the real title on the printed page then a move is needed I think. I have no preference. Perhaps do as you suggest and see if anyone wants them swapped. I think this long name is the correct one as shown on the college's own site. Oosoom Talk to me 20:33, 21 October 2006 (UTC)

Removed the following unsourced, POV paragraph to talk page. Can this be given sources?

[edit] 2006

Despite it's grand £40 million opening, the first year at the new college saw A-Level results drop drastically. In a survey of the college, many of the students blamed the lecturers' reliance on "Thomas Telford Online", an online learning programme. The students claimed that the lecturers refused to help when asked, instead telling them to look at the Telford material to find a solution. However, the students also pointed the finger at learning board Edexcel who controversially lowered the deadline date from July to May.

The drop in A-Level has led to an OFSTED inspection, which is due to take place in November 2006
