Governors at a college for children with special educational needs say they are angry new facilities are not ready for the start of term.
West Sussex County Council had said a new-look Woodlands Meed College in Burgess Hill would be ready last week.
During an inspection, governors said they were "gobsmacked" and the college was "a building site".
WSCC said it was working to "resolve issues as quickly as possible". The new term begins on Wednesday.
The local authority allocated almost 2.2million to rebuild the college on Birchwood Grove Road and improve facilities for pupils.
