The centre of social life on the campus is the student refectory, The Zone. Students can choose from a wide range of meals and snacks, listen to music or just chat and socialise with their friends. The College’s coffee shop is also a popular meeting place. Stratford-upon-Avon College is a Centre of Vocational Excellence for Hospitality and Catering so it is no surprise that our Academy Bar and Restaurant is so popular with members of the College and the general public. There is a Fitness Studio on campus. The equipment is modern and there is also a solarium. Students get a discount and if they want to swim or play badminton or other sports, the College has special arrangements with Stratford Leisure Centre, which is only a ten minute walk from the College.
