TBS Education announces plans for new campus in Toulouse

TBS Education is delighted to announce its ambitious real estate project in Toulouse. This strategic plan includes a major overhaul of the Entiore and Lascrosses campuses, symbolizing a significant transformation for our school.

A RESPONSIBLE AND INNOVATIVE PROJECT FOCUSED ON THE STUDENT EXPERIENCE

Following the suspension of the initial campus construction project at Compans-Caffarelli, TBS Education has reassessed its real estate options. The new project aims to be both responsible and innovative, consolidating activities in two emblematic buildings: Entiore and Lascrosses. This consolidation is intended to strengthen the cohesion of the training courses, encourage collaboration and reduce operating costs.

The project also aims to increase intake capacity to meet growing student demand, while diversifying the school's activities. At the heart of this initiative is innovation in the design of spaces, integrating pedagogical wellbeing.

Pierre Hurstel, President of TBS Education, comments: "The unanimous decision of our Board of Directors reflects our collective commitment to a sustainable vision for TBS Education. By redefining our campus project, we are reaffirming our societal mission and our determination to offer a first-class educational environment."

Stéphanie Lavigne, Managing Director of TBS Education: "This project for a new campus in Toulouse marks a major milestone in the history and development of TBS Education. We are going to build a school at the heart of the city that aims to be a model of its kind in terms of the learning experience and pedagogical well-being. An innovative and experiential place for our entire community: our teachers, our students, our alumni and our partners. I'm proud to open this new page in the school's chapter around the construction of an inspiring, connected and modular campus within which learners and teachers will be able to blossom to the full."

KEY DATES AND OUTLOOK

At the heart of this transformation, the Entiore campus in Quint-Fonsegrives is about to undergo an expansion, seeing its surface area double from 10,500 m2 to over 20,000 m2, with an ambitious vision of potentially eventually reaching 30,000 m2. The available 10 hectares of land around the current Entiore buildings will be redeveloped to accommodate sports activities, shared gardens and outdoor spaces dedicated to events. This campus is destined to become the heart of the school's activities. In addition, the creation of a student residence and accommodation for staff is currently being evaluated with the Toulouse Haute-Garonne Chamber of Commerce and Industry.

2024 marks the launch of this innovative project with the tender for project management assistance. Final delivery is scheduled for 2028, marking the completion of an ambitious project and the start of a new chapter for TBS Education.
