So big changes for primary school children and the changes too for those at the other end of their educational life. Student accommodation at some of our universities has undergone quite a transformation over the years. Nowadays students can expect to live in a bright environment with all the mod cons. Adrian Pictures has been to a brand new Northumbria University housing block in Gadeshead, which will take its first occupants next week, as well as the shops, cafes and cinema below them. There's free Wi-Fi, a gym and a gaming area. The finishing touch for one of 993 bedrooms in the Trinity Square student complex. Students don't arrive until next week, but the keenest have already checked out their new homes. So what's the attraction of a home in Gadeshead when your university is in Newcastle? Very much the social aspect of it. So obviously there's a cinema and a Frankie and Benny's in Nandos and Newcastle was just over the water. So it's really easy to just pop into town or go to the costa and just catch up with friends. Obviously it's obviously new accommodation as well. So everything's new and no one's slept in my bed and no one's used any of them with other facilities. So it's very much my own. The student blocks sit above the new shopping centre in Gadeshead and the council leader expects the influx of young people will bring a cash injection to the town too. They've got any left after the fees of course. Sorry I had to get that in. You wouldn't expect anything less. But yes indeed, the shops are actually getting geared up. We're ready. The cinema's here. They're very as venues behind you that we're standing in front of now. Whether they're going to eat and enjoying have a good quality of life. Putting a thousand students almost into the heart of Gadeshead will mean a lot to Gadeshead businesses, if I mean a lot to the high speed, I mean a lot to retail and also I think make a very positive contribution to the wider community. The flats will be road tested this weekend when 200 great North runners use them for an overnight stay. The only question for parents is how much will this student accommodation cost? You can expect about £5,000 for a standard room, which is very competitive in line with the best quality accommodation in this region. The studio which is a larger room would cost a little bit more about £6,000 per annum. £5,000 a year works out at about £100 per week for a brand new flat with views over the time. Most students, if not their parents, will consider that a price worth paying. Adrian Pitches, BBC Look North, Gadeshead. Very nice indeed, the don't know the board. Right, you're watching Tuesdays Look North. Don't you list John Dupont.
