A new multimillion-pound business school in Wiltshire has officially opened.

Former Dragons' Den star Nick Jenkins took part in the ribbon-cutting ceremony to mark the launch of Wiltshire College and University Centre’s new Wiltshire Business School.

The Moonpig founder said school, at the college's Lackham campus near Chippenham, would be an "asset" to the county and "great for local businesses".

“I'm very impressed with the facilities here and I think it's fantastic that it is in Wiltshire,” said Mr Jenkins. “I want to be employing people who have had the kind of training on offer here.”

Wiltshire Business School is based in the Georgian Grade II listed building Lackham House, which is part of a £2.2m development at the college’s Lackham campus.

As well as traditional classrooms, the school has meeting rooms fitted with wireless digital screens; laptop docking stations; video conferencing
