Love my course - could do with more in -person seminars

Reasonably priced for a student and lots of stuff to do

Great location and social life - wifi plays up a bit but its being fixed

The course is good but there are some modules which I do not enjoy as much as others such as for example academic skills which includes presenting in front of the class which I am not looking forward to at all. As well as this these sessions are four hours long which makes it extremely difficult for me to concentrate for the whole time. The modules such as animal welfare and management, introduction to animal biology and physiology chemistry i find really interesting and am really enjoying. The course is extremely useful and we get to learn a lot of different aspects which is really great.

I love thé location of this hall as it is extremely close to all of my courses and so is extremely useful if I have to go back and collect something that I have forgotten. In terms of value for money I do not think it is great. It is quite expensive as we are catered for Monday - Friday. However we have to provide our own meal for weekends but do not have access to a hob or oven and this is kind of annoying as you can’t make much food with just a microwave and kettle so I wish there were bigger facilities. As well as this there is no common area for everyone to meet and chill together and the kitchens are extremely small, meaning that there isn’t really time for everyone to chill and enjoy each others company. However, the rooms are great and if decorated then the room feels a lot more homey and feels a lot better. This place is now getting better as the days go on.

I'm only in my first couple of weeks but the course content and teaching has been good so far. I'm looking forward to being able to start the work properly.

This accommodation doesn't have communal areas; luckily this hasn't affected me meeting people but it could have if I'd not met neighbours whilst moving in. It's more expensive than others but I'm pleased with the room size. Some modernisation would be good but overall I'm happy. This is a catered hall and the food has been excellent - the catering staff are great and cater for my dairy and gluten free requirements which isn't easy. I find them approachable and knowledgeable and people with dietaey requirements can be confident in their handling of the food on offer. In Harris the shared kitchenettes for weekend use aren't too well equipped and would benefit from ovens with hobs.

Best aspect is all lectures have industry experience, worse part is not enough practical

All in one place everything is where you need it, Maintenance isn’t always the quickest

Best- Catered to getting a job. Worst- Fundamentals of physiology is so hard and the lecturer is confusing

Very rural, but also has newport for nightlife

Most- big rooms, common room access Worst- not my first choice, kitchen is always a mess

Content is all relevant and Tutorial sizes are a good size. However, two hour tutorials are too long

Newport has a great variety of shops and diversity. However, transport is lacked from and to the uni

Halls are located centrally on campus which is great. However, communal areas are lacked greatly and only small kitchens are areas to gather

I am really enjoying the course so far its everything I wanted and more, the lecturers are all really friendly and I feel I can ask for help when I need it. I have not had anything to do with my placement yet so i cannot really rate that.

All the staff that are involved in the halls are very friendly, Considering this is the most expensive accommodation it is not a step up really from the other halls. Issues with now having to do and pay for my own laundry is now a bit of an issue as it is a lot more expensive, now considering it is not included and there are not enough machines for the amount of people using them. The Wifi is usually good there are just a few evening where it can be a bit slow.

Best = majority of lectures , content taught in depth, support, facilities Worst = long lectures, could be done in less time.

Best = meeting new people, nice space, peaceful, close to most things Worst = cleaners who don't clean, not enough washing machines, not enough oven space

When there is a match at Wembley, the stadium has to be closed the day before. We always get told as far in advance as possible it there will be a stadium closure, and we are informed whether our lecture will be online or at Arch View House, just round the corner. We have 12 hours of contact time a week(4 hours, 3 days a week) with extra opportunities on Wednesday on everyone’s day off, and opportunities to be part of the sports teams who have matches on Wednesdays. The lecturers are all experts in their fields and can answer almost any question you throw at them. You really couldn’t ask for much more on the Coaching and Management degree!

Honestly, the accommodation is one of the most pricey in the area, but it’s so convenient being next door to the lecture building and a 5 minute walk from the stadium. I also love being in the same accommodation as loads of other UCFB students, as you can make friends simply by saying hello in the lift, or joining with a meet-up in one of the communal areas. The communication with the accommodation is quite poor in my opinion, but when there is an emergency, they are on top of it. The staff are lovely on the whole, and the facilities in the building are excellent!

Amazing support and great content given

I love where Hartpury is located, love the area and bus drive there
