Minister for Education Visits RWCMD New Build
Minister for Children, Education and Lifelong
Learning, Leighton Andrews, visited the Royal Welsh College of
Music & Drama in January, for a tour of the £22.5 million new
facilities currently under construction.
“We were delighted to welcome the Minister on to
our new site. The College received significant support from Welsh
Assembly Government for this substantial project for Cardiff and
Wales, and it was a pleasure to be able to show the Minister round
so that he can witness the building of the Concert Hall, The
Richard Burton Theatre and our other new facilities at first hand,”
said College Principal Hilary Boulding.
Neal Stephens, Managing Director of Willmott Dixon in Wales,
added: “The development of the new facilities at the Royal Welsh
College will transform the campus, and create a new visual landmark
in the heart of Cardiff. The Minister seemed very impressed with
what he saw, and with what it represents for the future of the
College.”
