Taster Days at Capel Manor College

Taster Days for School Leavers

Our Taster Days give Year 10 and 11 students the chance to experience what it’s like to study at London's environmental college.

You’ll take part in practical, hands-on sessions led by our tutors, meet current students, and see the learning environments for yourself, from gardens and glasshouses to specialist workshops and animal collections.

Taster Days, running from 9.45am to 1pm, are available across a range of subjects, with certain activities offered at specific times of the year. Dates and subject options are listed below.

Whether you are visiting as part of a school group or booking individually, a Taster Day is a great way to explore your options and find out if Capel Manor College is right for you.

Book your place now to secure your spot. Spaces are limited and allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.
