Fareham College is a further education college situated on a 22 acre campus on the western side of the town of Fareham in Hampshire, England.
History
Fareham College was formed in 1984 as a merger between an earlier technical college (Fareham Technical College) on the same site and the sixth-form college at the historic Price's School, a boys' grammar school on Park Lane, (before the latter's site was sold to developers), and became the sole state provider of post-16 education in Fareham (a tertiary college). Price's School became a sixth form college in 1976. Fareham Grammar School for Girls was on Birdwood Grove, and became Cams Hill School.
