Are you creative? If you’re interested in design, crafts and flowers and are deciding which course to take after school, or looking for a new direction, this hands-on introduction to floristry could be ideal for you.

Plumpton College has excellent facilities where you can develop your practical skills. You’ll learn in small groups in a supportive environment, helping you get the most out of your time here.

This is a full-time programme running three days per week, aimed primarily at school leavers aged 16–18 who have an active interest in floristry, arts and crafts. The programme covers basic floristry techniques, employment skills, work-related experience, and support to develop your English, maths and general life skills.
