About Sparsholt College

Sparsholt College Hampshire has been established for over 100 years, so we have very wide expertise and experience in the land-based sector. Over the years, the breadth and diversity of the subjects have widened, student numbers have grown significantly and the College has evolved into one of the largest land-based colleges in the country. The range of opportunities at the Sparsholt campus remains very extensive. We have excellent resources and facilities which support learning and study. There have been significant investments in building and facilities in recent years and we do recommend that you come and visit for yourselves at either a viewing day, a taster course, at one of our Saturday careers events or our Countryside Day held every May. The reputation of Higher Education at the College is very high and the Quality Assurance Agency (QAA) confirmed this when they last conducted a full assessment at the College. During the most recent full assessment, all programmes were judged as commendable in all respects. The QAA also judged that the specialist training facilities at the College were of a high standard. It is important to remember that a reputation alone does not make a college, nor do excellent buildings and top class resources. It is the commitment of a dedicated staff and the motivation of the students which contribute to a vibrant learning community.
