Andover College is a further education college located in the town of Andover, Hampshire. The college was formerly known as Cricklade College, but in 2007 changed its name following a successful merger with the nearby Sparsholt College. As a result of the merger, Andover College today exists as a campus of the wider Sparsholt College Hampshire. Andover College provides full and part-time courses for both school leavers and adults, and can boast of extensive teaching and recreational facilities across its campus.

Mr Tim Jackson
Values and Vision
As part of the wider Sparsholt College Hampshire, Andover College offers a large number of A-levels and Foundation Degrees aimed at young school leavers, along with numerous vocational qualifications. Andover College works closely with a number of external providers to offer courses that are relevant and highly valued by local business and industry, including a large number of apprenticeship opportunities. In order to help improve the accessibility of courses for older learners, the college works hard to offer Advanced Learning Loans, in order to help cover the cost of tuition.
