Craven College
Craven College is an aspirational College set in safe, friendly and inclusive rural campuses in Skipton within the beautiful Yorkshire Dales and at The Aviation Academy based airside at Leeds Bradford Airport. We continuously invest in our excellent industry standard facilities to support and enhance your studies, our latest project being a new £1.6m purpose-built Animal Management Centre (opened May 2018) on our Aireville Campus. This will be followed in 2019 by the construction of new Equine facilities including an international sized arena and outdoor warm up area. We are proud of the fact that Ofsted (2018) rated our College as good and our Apprenticeship provision as outstanding and praised our excellent record for student and Apprentice progression to university and rewarding employment.
