From Researching Virtual Initiatives in Education

Birmingham Metropolitan College is a further and higher education college with eight campuses distributed within Birmingham, England, United Kingdom. The college was created in August 2009 as a result of the amalgamation of Matthew Boulton College and Sutton Coldfield College. The main campus is based at Lichfield Road in Sutton Coldfield, the former main buildings for Sutton Coldfield College.

In addition to the existing campuses and facilities, there are proposals for the construction of a new campus in Perry Barr, although these plans are currently on hold due to funding issues. The college is a member of the 157 Group of high performing schools.
