Gloucestershire College

Somewhat disorganised with poor communication but steps to improve are being taken. Computing staff are good teachers who perform best when students put the effort in. College is easy to navigate and easy to acclimate to after a couple weeks.

I did a year of Level 2 Computing and got a DM in the course here, overall I feel like my time was worth it. I cannot comment on level 4 and uni studies but level 2 staff work with what they can.

The location is quite convenient, and easy to get to from outside of Gloucester. It is also located right next to the iconic Gloucester docks, as well as the queys, so you can spend breaks productively. The building is nice too, well maintained, and cared for, the new Cyber rooms they have are also pleasant, and very high tech. The reception and library staff are very nice, along with the teacher I was able to meet. The only criticism I have towards the school at the moment is student parking, as the site doesn't really provide it, so parking would have to be done elsewhere.
Apparently this campus is becoming carbon neutral which is a positive about the site!

Literally horrible needed so much support from things I was going through they acted like they cared but didn’t do anything to encourage me to come in When they knew I needed some support with personal stuff in my life all I can say is they honestly don’t care about students they just see you as a number that is it

Gloucestershire College apprenticeship scheme is great, lovely staff. Although, the college doesn’t accommodate for apprentices visiting the campus. No learning space provided even when I phoned up!

I don't believe this college has improved since I went there in 2015. Check the Ofsted reports - I believe Cirencester College is better. My experience of two courses here tells me that rich students do well here and poor students do not. If you do well here at this college it is in spite of the college and not because of it.

Appaling. Some staff are incredible but most are useless. They don't care at all and if you learn differently or your not the norm your buggered

No parking for students here, and the closest car park is £6 a day which on a student budget is a lot. The college itself is ok could do with entry into the far end of the college, whereas if you leave via the far end exit, you have to go all the way back to the main entrance and go to your room the long way! Quite a nice outside area for lunch or smoking, but it's much better to go over the river and there's a really nice square with plenty of seating and cafes and shops

Save yourself the trouble and don't go to this college, Appalling support for students and are more concerned about their money they get from the government then their students wellbeing and mental health. They'd rather get rid of a student then try to support them through their mental health struggles. Disgusting. Shame on the head of the school Debbie Woodward extremely incompetent and does not care about any student.
