To the Northern School of Game and Wildlife at Newton Rigg!

Over the last 14 years and more recently as part of the new University of Cumbria, we have become established as the major provider of training courses and education in gamekeeping and related subjects in the north of the UK.

The ideal location of the Newton Rigg Campus at Penrith in Cumbria gives our students ready access to every resource and aspect of modern game and wildlife (particulary deer and woodland) conservation and estate management.

We are able to offer:

  • Our own estates/farms - run with wildlife habitat and game conservation as a priority.
  • Our own student-run high quality driven game shoot and rearing facility.
  • Our own study forests and woodlands and deer management responsibility.
  • Our own ‘headquarters’ building with dedicated game and deer larders, gundog kennels and workshops.
  • Our own professional standard clay pigeon shooting ground and full bore rifle range.
  • Very close contacts with the gamekeeping 'industry' and access to local high quality lowground game shoots and upland grouse estates.
  • Specialist experienced gamekeeping and countryside management teaching team.
