Joining a new learning programme is an exciting opportunity, and we want to make the process as straightforward as possible for learners and their families.
Whether you're interested in a vocational qualification, home education programme, alternative provision or individual learning, our team is here to help you explore suitable options.
At Frampton Farm Education, we recognise that every learner has different interests, abilities and support requirements. We take time to understand individual needs and help families identify appropriate learning opportunities.
From your initial enquiry through to enrolment and your first session, we'll guide you through each stage so you know what to expect.
Contact our team to discuss the learner's interests, educational goals and suitable programme options.
We'll consider individual needs, course requirements, availability and whether a pre-visit would be helpful.
Complete the relevant enrolment forms, confirm session arrangements and make any required payments.
Attend your induction or first session, meet the team and begin your learning journey with us.
We offer a range of practical learning opportunities at Frampton Farm and Poppies Farm, including vocational qualifications, alternative provision, home education programmes and flexible learning.
Choosing the right programme depends on the learner's interests, age, abilities, previous experience and individual learning goals.
Our team can help families explore the available options and understand the different approaches to learning, including group courses, individual tuition and hybrid programmes.
For vocational qualifications, we'll also consider whether the learner is ready to meet the required learning and assessment criteria.
We encourage families to contact us before enrolling if they are unsure which programme would be most appropriate.
Explore Learning Programmes
We understand that visiting a new learning environment can feel unfamiliar, particularly for learners who need additional reassurance or support.
Where appropriate, we can arrange a pre-visit to explore the farm, meet our team and discuss individual learning needs.
This provides an opportunity to consider whether the environment, activities and available support are suitable before starting.
Arrange a Pre-VisitOnce a suitable programme has been agreed, we'll provide the relevant enrolment information and confirm session arrangements.
Families may be asked to complete enrolment forms, provide learner information and make any required payments before starting.
For accredited courses, additional registration details may be required by the awarding organisation.
Enquire About EnrolmentBefore attending, there are a few important arrangements to consider. Our team will provide relevant information to help learners and families prepare for their first session.
Receive confirmation of your agreed programme, start date, session times and attendance arrangements.
Share relevant medical, educational and support information so appropriate arrangements can be considered.
Prepare suitable outdoor clothing, practical footwear and any items needed for your learning sessions.
Where applicable, receive Moodle login details and guidance on accessing course materials and assessments.
Once your programme and session arrangements have been agreed, we'll guide you through the final steps before starting.
Families will receive the relevant enrolment forms and information about booking arrangements, fees and any qualification registration requirements.
It is important that all requested information is completed accurately, including emergency contacts, medical information and any additional support needs.
Depending on the programme, learners may complete an induction covering the learning environment, farm safety, expected behaviour and relevant course information.
For vocational qualifications, this may also include an introduction to assessment requirements, learning resources and individual goals.
Our team will introduce learners to the session arrangements, relevant staff and learning activities.
We recognise that some learners may need additional time to settle into a new environment, and we aim to provide a supportive introduction appropriate to their needs.
For many of our vocational qualifications and flexible learning programmes, learners will use Moodle, our online learning platform.
Moodle provides access to course materials, learning activities, worksheets and assessments, allowing learners to continue their studies between practical sessions.
Where applicable, learners will receive login details and guidance on accessing their course during enrolment or induction.
Some programmes combine online theory with practical training and assessment at the farm, while others use Moodle to support regular face-to-face teaching.
Our team can provide guidance if learners experience difficulties accessing their learning materials.
Explore Flexible & Hybrid Learning
We recognise that every learner is different, and starting a new programme may require individual planning and support.
We encourage parents, carers, schools and professionals to share relevant information about learning needs, communication preferences, medical requirements and any concerns before enrolment.
This helps our team consider suitable teaching approaches, reasonable adjustments and appropriate support arrangements.
As our learning centres are based in working farm environments, we also consider individual safety, accessibility and suitability when planning placements.
Our aim is to help learners feel welcomed, supported and ready to develop confidence and independence.
Whether you're exploring a new qualification, looking for an alternative approach to education or interested in one of our home education programmes, we'd be happy to help you take the next step.
Our team can discuss suitable programmes, availability, support requirements and enrolment arrangements.
If you're unsure which option is right for you or your child, please get in touch and we'll help you explore the possibilities.
We look forward to welcoming you to Frampton Farm Education.
