Keepmoat is launching two new homebuilding projects at Manor Way, Peterlee, and Heathway, Seaham, and will work closely with the college to offer students the chance to work on-site in a number of construction roles as part of work experience placements, as well as on-site tours at different stages of the construction process.

Both will enhance student understanding of the different stages of construction work.
