Animal Management

Our team of industry experienced staff will be working with you to gain valuable insight into this varied and fascinating industry.

We are the only College in the region to use Species360, a specialist zoological management system, we are members of the Rare Breeds Survival Trust and as of August 2020 we also became a BIAZA Education Association member.

Significant investment has been made over the last few of years and the area is constantly striving to make improvements and additions to the ever-growing facilities, making it not only a fantastic learning environment for our students but also a home to our animals.

Over the past few years the department has continued to expanded its provision to provide a home to a horsefield tortoise, five Guernsey goats and a Yemen chameleon along with many rescue animals. The area has fantastic links with local organisations, which has seen students benefit from gaining work experience within a variety of local businesses.
