Aberdeen Technical College was the place to go for practical education.
From baking to bricklayering, Aberdeen Technical College had it all and shaped the lives of many young people throughout the years.
To celebrate the impact the college had on the student who attended it, we have searched through our archives for photographs of the college and its pupils.
