I don’t really like my timetable because the hardest module content is at the start of the week, but I like that some lectures are recorded so if i miss one for illness or another reason i won’t feel like I'm behind

I like how the rooms are layed out and the kitchen space, I like who I live with the bathrooms aren’t that great though.

great and student support is good

No support at all, ridiculous price

Buildings are a little old but most lecturers are nice, some at bit tough

Events occasionally canceled or delayed, tad bit walking and little expensive compared to outside accomodation

The course is very much a low contact subject, where we usually have one seminar and one lecture a week, and sometimes accompanied by a visiting lecture. We have contact time available, usually that you have to sign up to.

I think this accommodation was very nice, very modern, but potentially could be considered quite expensive compared to some of the other accommodations available. You get an ensuite, kitchen, shared study room and a lounge room, which is good, compared to places like st Crispin's and crown place that had many more facilities it could seem more expensive.

Very good teacher and nice choice of classes

1. My course is very interesting and contains very exciting modules to learn about. The course structure is also appropriate and lecturers are very knowledgeable. There is time for independent study and also contact hours. Classes are mainly in person, with revision sessions at the end of the module online. Contact hours are around 12 hours per week of in person classes for neck. 2. I would appreciate if there was a greater access to past paper questions so us students could practice exam style questions more helping in preparation for exams.

The university hall - Palatine court is very modern, and has some good facilities such as an en-suite and big kitchen. It is also located in a beautiful area which overlook the farm in front of the university. However, to improve this hall, I would appreciate more fridges and freezers for the number of students in that flat. For example, My flat contains 8 people in total however, there are only 2 fridges and 2 freezers in the kitchen which in total have 6 drawers, so 2 of our flatmates need to share a fridge draw and freezer draw which is uncomfortable and inconvenient. Furthermore, the toilet is a wet room, which unfortunately floods each time I take a shower. I would have appreciated for the glass of the shower box to go all the way down to prevent water coming out or for the toilet floor to be made more slanted and have a greater degree of slant so the water drains more quickly. Additionally, we need a washing machine in each hall, as consistently paying to wash our clothes in the laundrette on campus is adding up and becoming expensive

The hours for journalism really help; the seminar allows the students to have conversations and discuss the course content. There are reading weeks and only 1 lecture to allow for time to focus on the assignments which make up the grade. For psychology there are 2 lectures which means there is more time to go over the course and teach the content.

My course has been really accessible overall and the lecturers are great, really knowledgeable and helpful. My counselling skills course is definitely the strongest out of the two, psychology is great but the lecturers are much bigger and sometimes PowerPoint slides are heavily relied upon to deliver content which can lead students to become disengaged and leave early. Counselling skills have a great mix of workshop based learning, discussion based learning and PowerPoint based lectures so that learning remains dynamic and interesting. So far no lessons have been cancelled last minute and they have always tried to accommodate with substitute lecturers in the case of absence, very few of my lectures have been online.

The lecturers for the English Language course are supportive, knowledgable and friendly. The lectures and modules, however, are not very engaging and I am easily able to catch up on the work from looking at the slides from home. My average attendance for the 3 years I've been here is around 75%, and I do not believe my grades have been affected in the slightest from me not attending some lectures. Gateway is an inconvenience to get to, especially as those from my year weren't told in advance that this is where we were going to be from year 2 onwards. The rooms are often uncomfortable to work in due to their layouts. Timetabling is pretty awful, with all of my lectures in 3rd year being crammed onto Mondays every week. The fact that there are compulsory in-person lectures in Kingsway Campus for 'developing professional practice' in 3rd year is really inconvenient too as this is quite a distance away from most student accommodations. This should really be online or not compulsory at all. Assignment deadlines are also badly planned out - I have 3 crammed together in April, one of which being my dissertation.

I really enjoy this course it's really interesting but I wish we had better tutoring sessions because most sessions I feel like I have gained nothing from it

I like how big my room is but our kitchen is really low quality and it takes ages to cook something
