Very un-organised college. I was here during an apprenticeship and it took ages to get things sorted and they weren't exactly clear on what my assessment criteria was.

Originally I was supposed to do accounting but they sacked the tutors. Leaving me doing a standard business course.

I came back to an open day a year later but they still didn't have any accounting tutors to talk to even though it was advertised on their website.

Also my friend was doing level three business but they cancelled halfway through leaving him to do IT.

They need to do much better.

Absolutely awful college. This college has no organisation skills what so ever.
Courses being cancelled, tutors leaving half way through the course, communication and language barriers with staff and tutors, rude, ignorant and untrained staff.

I have been at this college for 3 years and witnessed the terrible making of the new building that was placed nearly 2 years ago. The new kitchens and the beauty salons were fine, however the changing rooms were terribly made, along with the other classrooms that seemed extremely toneless and dull. Lets just say it is not the best environment to study in.

Despite all the negative reviews, this place has massively changed since then; the addition of a secondary building has improved the range of subject specialities available, and the course I'm currently taking is amazing. Staff are friendly and approachable, facilities are clean and sanitary, food from the refectory is cheap and good tasting, and they don't try to extort money out of you like other educational places.

Awful. I was a pupil when I was 18 physically attending the college and again last year as a work based learning pupil. I signed up for my course in January 2016, went to the tutor and all that. I heard nothing from them until May even though we had already paid, I was constantly chasing them up to know when I could start.
I would go weeks without hearing from my tutor but then told that I was behind in my work. I would have to wait for ages for any answers to queries I had, is it any wonder?
Then when I finally sent in my last unit July 2017, did I get a confirmation from my tutor that she recieved it? Of course not. I heard nothing from her from that point on just having to guess if I passed or not.
Bringing me on to my second point, my certificate. Its currently almost March 2018 and have I received my certificate? Nope. I had to call them over a month ago and ask where it is, they informed me that I passed but apparently it's "got lost in the mail" and that they'll get another copy and contact me so I can pick it up.
I call BS because two of my family members also had the same problem of having to wait a good 8-12 months before receiving anything.

It isn't good enough.

This college needs to shape up, especially if they want money from people.

Worsed college in the area. Staff always lie to you and never care about people's mental heath..
