Developing a North East Construction and Housing Academy

21 January 2026

The North East Housing Partnership (NEHP) is working with further education providers to develop a North East Construction and Housing Academy. Initially, the academy will be aimed at 14–19-year-olds, but we’re aiming to expand this to those aged 19+. This Academy will support the delivery of new affordable homes and retrofit work in the North East while providing opportunities for young people in the region.

In this case study, the North East Housing Partnership explains how this academy developed.
