The New College Doncaster will be developed on playing fields adjacent to Hayfield Lane in Auckley.
It will be operated by the New Collaborative Learning Trust and plans to open to students in September 2017.
Planned works include a 9,450m2 sixth-form college with individual curriculum based learning zones within a multi-functional hub featuring informal learning, social spaces and extensive sports facilities.
Leon Riley, Principal Designate of New College Doncaster, said: "We are delighted to be announcing our preferred bidder to build New College Doncaster. This is a huge step forward for education in Doncaster and we look forward to working with BAM to create state of the art facilities for us to deliver outstanding educational opportunities for young people from across the borough.

"This will be a dynamic centre for post-16 learning, supporting achievement, aspiration and progression."
Tony Fitzgerald, BAM's pre-construction manager, added: "New College Doncaster has a fast track construction programme commencing in August 2016 and completing in phases ready for the new academic term in September 2017.
"We've been paying great attention to detail to ensure our design solution meets the college's brief and can be delivered on time. It's an attractive design and we have significant experience in creating sixth form learning environments – these will be fantastic new facilities."
Plans for the new facility will be on display at Doncaster Racecourse between 4:30pm and 7:30pm on 20 April.
