Website Terms & Conditions

Last updated: November 2026

1. Introduction

Welcome to Frampton Farm Education.

These Terms & Conditions explain the conditions for using our website and accessing information about our educational services.

Frampton Farm Education provides information about practical, land-based education, vocational qualifications, alternative provision, home education and other learning opportunities available through Frampton Farm in Kent and Poppies Farm in Berkshire.

By using this website, you agree to comply with these terms. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the website.

2. Our Learning Centres

Frampton Farm Education is a shared website representing two independent learning centres.

Frampton Farm – Kent

Operated by Friends of Frampton Farm CIC.

Email: education@framptonfarm.co.uk

Poppies Farm – Berkshire

Operated by a separate company.

Email: info@poppiesfarm.com

Each learning centre is responsible for its own educational provision, enrolment arrangements, fees and services unless otherwise stated.

Enquiries submitted through our website are directed to the relevant learning centre.

3. Website Information

We aim to ensure that information published on our website is accurate, clear and up to date.

However, course availability, programme content, fees, timetables, entry requirements and other details may change.

Information provided on this website is intended as general guidance and does not constitute a guaranteed offer of a place or service.

Visitors should confirm relevant details with the appropriate learning centre before making arrangements or commitments.

4. Courses & Educational Programmes

Our learning centres provide a range of educational opportunities, including vocational qualifications, alternative provision, home education programmes and practical learning activities.

Course suitability and enrolment are considered individually, taking into account relevant factors such as the learner's age, abilities, interests, educational needs and readiness to participate safely.

Some programmes have specific entry requirements, assessment criteria or awarding organisation conditions.

We reserve the right to make reasonable changes to programme delivery, staffing, activities or timetables where necessary.

Any significant changes affecting an enrolled learner will be communicated through the relevant learning centre.

5. Enrolment & Bookings

Submitting an enquiry or expressing interest in a programme does not guarantee a place.

Enrolment is subject to availability, suitability, completion of any required documentation and acceptance of the relevant booking arrangements.

Before a booking is confirmed, parents, carers, schools or commissioning organisations will be provided with applicable information about fees, attendance expectations, programme arrangements and any additional requirements.

Specific enrolment and booking conditions will be provided by the learning centre delivering the programme.

6. Fees & Payments

Fees vary according to the programme, qualification, learning centre and level of support required.

Information about fees and payment arrangements is available on our website or directly from the relevant learning centre.

Additional costs may apply for awarding organisation registration, certification, individual tuition or other services where specified.

Payment arrangements, cancellation conditions and refund entitlements are governed by the terms agreed for the relevant booking, together with applicable consumer law.

7. Attendance & Participation

Learners are expected to attend agreed sessions and follow the reasonable instructions of staff.

Our learning centres operate within working farm environments, where activities may involve animals, tools, equipment and outdoor terrain.

Learners must follow safety instructions and behave appropriately towards staff, other learners and animals.

Where behaviour presents a significant safety concern, the relevant learning centre may need to review participation or take appropriate action in accordance with its policies and booking terms.

Parents, carers and commissioning organisations should inform the relevant learning centre of absences or changes that may affect attendance.

8. Health, Safety & Accessibility

We take reasonable steps to provide safe and appropriate educational environments.

However, working farms involve natural hazards, including uneven ground, animals, outdoor conditions and practical activities.

Learners and visitors must follow instructions, remain within authorised areas and comply with relevant health and safety procedures.

Families and commissioning organisations should provide relevant information about medical, mobility, sensory or additional support requirements before enrolment or attendance.

Accessibility and facilities differ between Frampton Farm and Poppies Farm, and suitability is considered individually.

Visits to our learning centres are by prior arrangement only.

9. Qualifications & Assessment

Where programmes lead to recognised qualifications, learners must meet the relevant requirements of the awarding organisation.

Completion of a course does not automatically guarantee that a qualification will be awarded.

Qualifications are awarded only when the required assessment evidence and standards have been achieved and applicable awarding organisation requirements have been satisfied.

Reasonable adjustments may be available where appropriate, subject to the requirements of the qualification and awarding organisation.

10. Moodle & Online Learning

Some programmes provide access to Moodle or other online learning platforms.

Learners are responsible for using their accounts appropriately and keeping login details secure.

Course materials, activities and assessments must be completed in accordance with the instructions provided by the relevant learning centre.

Unauthorised sharing of login details, misuse of online platforms or inappropriate behaviour may result in access being reviewed or restricted.

Access to online learning resources may be limited to the learner's enrolment or subscription period.

Additional terms may apply to specific online learning services or subscriptions.
