There really is no place like Hartpury. Our stunning campus is set in a 360-hectare estate just a few minutes from the city of Gloucester and close to Cheltenham. Not only will we offer you a unique opportunity to study in a beautiful environment, we’ll give you the skills, confidence and qualifications you need to turn your ambitions into reality. We work hard to ensure our students are stretched to their potential and our exceptional support for students’ safety and wellbeing was recognised in our latest Ofsted report for Residential Services as we received a grade of ‘outstanding’. More than £50million has been invested in recent years to create an environment with outstanding facilities that will help you develop your talents and reach your goals. In early 2015, a brand new College Learning Centre opened on campus. The new building provides a modern learning environment with first class facilities dedicated to students studying for college level qualifications, such as Diplomas and A-levels. Our new £8.8million sports facilities boast the latest sports equipment including an altitude chamber for hypoxic training. In 2019 we will be developing an Agri Tech centre for Gloucestershire on campus. This will be a learning hub for industry, including the latest smart technologies. We have new equine facilities being built, ready for the 2020 European Championships that we are hosting at Hartpury. Our animal facilities and activities will also be developed in line with growing employment demands.
