In September 2024 Inspire College Eastbourne House, Sutton-in-Ashfield, relocated to High Pavement House, Sutton-in-Ashfield.
Our state of the art learning centre offers a variety of courses for young people, including:
NCFE CACHE Award in Caring for a Child / Children Entry 3 Level
Courses are free (for those in receipt of eligible benefits) or low cost. Browse all adult learning courses at High Pavement and book today!
We love to share our learning centre and fantastic kitchen facilities with the local community and would love to hear from you about the types of courses you would be interested in. Please let us know what you would like to see by taking a few moments to complete our short survey.
Our learning centre is conveniently located close to Sutton town centre and Inspire’s Sutton-in-Ashfield Library, making it easily accessible. Ashfield District Council, with funding from the Government’s Towns Fund, acquired and refurbished the building to provide a top-tier educational environment.
Inspire has further invested in kitchen refitting, ICT infrastructure, furniture and soft furnishings to ensure a comfortable, productive learning space that creates a vibrant and supportive setting for the young people of Ashfield to thrive.
We're enrolling now for college courses starting in September 2026.

We are pleased to announce that Sutton-in-Ashfield Library will be operating fully from Wednesday 18 February 2026, as the issues with the heating are now resolved. 🎉
This means that the library will be reverting to its regular opening hours, and no longer closing at 1pm, and that customers will be able to access the library as normal. Our regular events will also resume, including Places of Welcome, and Rattle, Ryme, and Roll.
If you have been contacted regarding alternative venue arrangements for any other events, please assume that those alternative arrangements will remain correct unless you are informed otherwise.
Please note that Registrars will continue to operate their service from Mansfield Central Library until the end of the month.
Thank you for your patience and understanding, and for bearing with us while we tried to do the best we could for our valued staff and customers under the circumstances.
We apologise for the inconvenience caused, and we are so pleased to be opening Sutton-in-Ashfield Library at full capacity once more.
