Further to the learning that takes place both in and out of the classroom, our experienced tutors will guide learners to explore many different locations across Kent with regular field trips and practical experiences, giving opportunity for theory to be put into practice.
As a student at the Canterbury College New Dover Road site, you will be part of a buzzing campus within walking distance of Canterbury's city centre which prepares you for progression into work or university.

The land surrounding the teaching buildings at Spring Lane offer a fantastic opportunity for learners to develop practical conservation skills in a safe and secure environment.
