School Overview

About Plumpton College

Plumpton College is an amazing location at the foot of the South Downs and only 20 minutes away from the seaside town of Brighton.

The college dates back to 1919 and is an agricultural college during the academic year, as such it has a working farm; stables, including one of the best horse-riding schools in the country; and beautiful grounds which can be used for outside activities. Recently, Plumpton College has expanded significantly, building an animal care centre, winery, workshop facilities, library and extensions and renovations to the main building and accommodation blocks.

During the summer, Plumpton College is the location of Bucksmore Education summer courses. Established in 1979, Bucksmore Education is an award-winning academic short course provider. We aim to support every student towards achieving their goals, whether this is studying at a top UK boarding school or university, or becoming a future leader in business, politics, or any other sphere of life.
