I have thoroughly enjoyed my time at Plumpton College. The university experience here is definitely unique and one to consider if you are looking at studying an animal-based degree. The class sizes are relatively small, making staff and student interaction extremely focused and personal. Teaching staff are extremely friendly and definitely play a role in making the uni experience as positive and stress-free as possible. The modules in both of the animal degrees are extremely useful for application across a series of job roles also. Because the scale of degree students - college students is extremely uneven, the facilities solely available to university students are limited but I am aware that the staff are working hard to make plans to change this.

I'm currently studying BSc animal behaviour and welfare at Myerscough, the campus is lovely and the lecturers are all really understanding and helpful. The only downfalls are that the location isn't close to the town centre so it can be difficult to get to shops if you don't drive (there are buses though).

The staff are amazing, so supportive and really take the time to help you when you need it. The only bad point was the catering options for those of us with food allergies although efforts were made to improve this.

These are the 2026 rankings, based on ratings given by past and present students
Best: well-rounded, educated lecturers that are enthusiastic about contributing to our learning; lots of societies providing opportunities Worst: assessors for written assignments and PBL tutors tend to not give a level playing field for marking/educating - we don't get taught exactly the same things as the rest of our cohort, it is tutor dependent (PBL, clinical skills, etc)

Worst- lots of false advertising for providing help. For example for entire first year i was in communication with CVA for netball umpiring and I have still not progressed, and have very few umpiring matches, even though I am already qualified Best- gorgeous campus

There is a great atmosphere on campus, everyone is friendly and supportive, the facilities are amazing especially the new science and research centre. Smaller class sizes gives it a more personal approach to university life. There is an amazing support network to help you progress through your degree.
