School-Leaver Course Guide

In the Animal Studies department we recognise that the transition to college can be exciting but daunting. We pride ourselves on providing our students with a warm, supportive but challenging environment in which anything is possible. We use a wide range of teaching and learning methods because we know that students are as diverse as the animal kingdom!

“So far this year we’ve learnt about British wildlife, biology, and legislation”

 Large animal care unit set in 12 acres of pleasant and attractive grounds, accommodating numerous species.  Our lecturers are highly experienced in teaching, assessing and animal management.  Evolving curriculum to meet the changing requirements of the animal industry.  Our course provision spans from Level 1 through to Level 6.  All students complete a work placement with an animal organisation such as Deen City Farm, London Zoo or Heathrow Animal Reception Centre.

 While the courses are both physically and mentally challenging, this is a friendly, welcoming place to learn and you will find yourself growing in maturity and confidence throughout your time here.  The courses we teach attract people with many different career aims, from potential veterinary nurses and zoo keepers to stock managers and conservationists.
