Caerleon campus
The Caerleon campus site was purchased and in 1912 the foundation stone for the college was laid by Reginald McKenna, MP for North Monmouthshire and home secretary in the Liberal Government of the time.[10] Between 2019 and 2023 the campus was used as a principal filming location for the Netflix television series Sex Education, when it represented Moordale Secondary School.Swash & Son's original plans were for a more elaborate building than was eventually constructed, with a larger central tower and more decoration in the stonework.[17] The college main block, the former principal's house, the caretaker's lodge and the gatepiers at the entrance to the site are all Grade II listed buildings.[1][15][16][17] John Newman considered two later-20th century additions to be of particular interest; the Faculty of Art and Design, "a spectacular cascade of steel and glass", of 1982, and the Rathmell Building, "a huge, metal-clad asymmetrical curve", of 1995–97.
