If you love horses, our Horse Care and Equine Management courses could be just what you're looking for and can lead to lots of rewarding career options.

Our equine students learn both practice and theory, but do so much more beyond the classroom. At Plumpton College you will take part in practical yard duties, gaining valuable hands-on experience using our fantastic equine facilities which are some of the largest and most comprehensive in Sussex.
