Paragon, Brentford
"Our partnership with Berkeley First has been highly successful and reflective of the benefits that can be derived when a University works jointly with a property developer to deliver superb purpose-built faculty buildings and student accommodation. The quality of the academic facilities and residential accommodation we can offer at Paragon means we can meet student expectations and consequently more students will choose TVU"
