College of West Anglia, Cambridge Campus

Very nice well set out college for animal studies. Lots of well cared for animals and lovely teachers

I can honestly say that I have had enough of CWA. It is a couple of miles from my yard so very convenient but this does not make up for the poor experiences I have suffered at their hands. The first occasion was while competing at a BD event and I was shouted at by staff for tying my horse to a fence (which already had bailing twine attached to it) as I had been dropped off and didn't have a lorry to tie him to. When I tried to explain that this was only while I registered my arrival I was shouted over and told to move him immediately. At the same event I was given the harshest test sheet that I've ever received, comments and scoring, and when I showed it to my trainer she said the judge was renowned for it.Today I attended a jumping clinic as I am in need of confidence building and would rather not have to travel too far for training. Firstly, the instructor was late for the start of the class. She was very patronising in her teaching manor and did not explain what she expected of me and my horse very clearly. It was clear that she had a lesson plan which she was going to stick to regardless of suitability to the individual. This was especially problematic as the level of rider varied from someone looking to affiliate this year to a beginner who nearly fell off after there horse took a long stride to a fence. After the lesson I spoke to one of the other pupils who said that they had been in tears with this particular instructor in the past.I gave Milton a second chance and they made me regret it.

Horses very well schooled and yard very well

hi I used to go to the college of west anglia and it was good then when I went to go back I told them if I could do It online and I got a rude response saying no I couldn't yet it dont take 5 minutes to do and I work better from home and Charlotte let me do it last year. on a friday I was so looking forward to coming to do the work but I am upset angry and mad that they couldn't try something I do not recomend this college as they are so rude and mean to me not evening trying and see if it works and dont think this is the last your hear from me and I go to another college who will help. me more than you lot will ever will

My wife is studying at this college. It is easy to find just off the A10 and on the outskirts of the town. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The college offer an equal opportunities policy and there is provision for disabled students to park.

Really fun and has lots to learn

Good Campus

Offers a variety of courses & open days for those interested in animals, as a career or petcare

Traffic and Bus timetables make it a pain to get to.Not very informative when it comes to the fees and uniform you need during the course.Teaching and resources are very good however and so far I am enjoying my second year of studies

Our son attends CWA and has found his feet so to speak. He has had excellent support and lessons. If you have an interest in animal's then this is the college for you
