Hartpury College 2024-2025 Accountability Statement

The nature of this mission and the specialist nature of the educational provision means that the organisation’s reach extends beyond the local geography to serve specialist sectors across the country. As a result, Hartpury has become one of the largest residential colleges in England with a maximum occupancy of 1,140 bed spaces on campus for College students who come from beyond the local area (of Gloucestershire, Herefordshire, and Worcestershire). Figure 2.1 shows the typical distribution of students who attend Hartpury College, based on acceptances of College places in the 2022-2023 academic year. Travel to work patterns are variable with many staff commuting locally from the Gloucester, Cheltenham, and Herefordshire areas. A small number of staff also commute to Hartpury from across the border in Wales. A proportion of staff have relocated to the Hartpury area for job roles, particularly lecturers or managers and a number were already living locally prior to taking up employment at Hartpury.

Due to the reach, Hartpury recruits from 218 local authorities across the UK.
