Location and Atmosphere
MPW Cambridge occupies a charming Victorian building called Brookside, which serves as the college’s main hub in the heart of Cambridge. Spread across four floors, it creates an engaging environment where interactive learning comes naturally. Just nearby stands Panton Street, another Victorian structure that extends the college’s footprint with additional facilities.
Teaching Spaces at MPW Cambridge
Brookside houses spacious, modern studios designed for small groups of 3 to 9 students, which means everyone gets personal attention in an atmosphere that encourages genuine learning. Most classrooms feature audiovisual equipment and interactive boards for screen-based teaching. Those passionate about science or art will find three well-equipped laboratories and a dedicated art room. Meanwhile, Panton Street contains some of the college’s most spacious teaching areas, offering plenty of room for various activities.
Technology and Connectivity
Wireless internet runs throughout Brookside, supporting the digital needs of students and staff alike. The college provides two supervised study rooms with reference textbooks and 15 computer workstations, plus a computer lab and internet library with another 16 workstations—ensuring there’s always somewhere to research, study, or work on assignments without competing for resources.
Recreation and Sports at MPW Cambridge
The Brookside common room offers a place to unwind and socialize, equipped with personal devices for entertainment. There’s also a café right in the building serving various drinks alongside homemade hot and cold food—a convenient spot to catch your breath between classes. Another student common room in Panton Street provides extra space for relaxation and hanging out. For physical education and sports, MPW Cambridge partners with The Leys School, located across from the main building, giving students access to excellent athletic facilities.
Examination Centre
The college is a registered centre for all examining boards, which means public exams take place right on campus in a large examination hall. This saves students the hassle of traveling elsewhere for important tests, letting them sit exams in familiar surroundings.
