support from teachers

best part is how supportive staff are worst part is lack of applied

cooking facilites are great worst part is broken showers that are not fixed

Plumpton college staff are very supportive and accommodating, nothing is ever too much to ask for in terms of support from my experience. Campus is in a very picturesque location and has many local walks which are good for having a break from studying!

Course was taught over two days a week, leaving other days for self study/other activities. Programme manager was available at any time to provide any help he could. Course content built on what I had previously learnt in my FdSc course at another course provider, contact with animals was limited but this is expected at level 6 however, for an applied course this was disappointing but feedback has been taken on board and changes will be made for future years.

I had a room with a basin and shared toilet and shower facilities with six others in my hallway. Cleaners were friendly and cleaned rooms weekly, with bins emptied every other day. Accommodation was catered three meals a day which was nice but food was questionable at times and the weekend menu is limited. Maintenance team was friendly and things were fixed quickly when flagged to the relevant staff. Communal area within the accommodation was regularly left messy by others and meant I did not feel able to utilise this space in the way I would have liked to. Building was shared with all over 18s from varying levels of courses, this meant that those on college courses were making lots of noise in the evenings whilst the degree level students were busy preparing for exams and assignments which made things difficult at times.
