Plater College in Oxford is shutting down.

Plater College is closing down, 83 years after it was founded, after getting a bad report from the government inspectorate.

They have about 150 students, studying IT, sociology and psychology, law and religious studies.

The college's web site currently says:
"We are sorry to have to inform you that the College will be closing on 31 July 2005 and, therefore, we are no longer recruiting students for courses beyond that date.
However, we do still have a programme of short courses running until early July and we would be pleased to send you information about those if you are interested."

Plater is on Pullens Lane, right next door to Oxford Brookes University, in fact some of the residential halls at Brookes are right off Pullens Lane. This probably means that Brookes Uni will buy the site.
