Excellent

Very good

our lecturers teach us new and helpful skills and show us new and different techniques which would not be explained about in books, one lecturer recommended me for a job i can link to my studies and carry out along with my class timetable.

i'm learning new and different techniques in the practical lessons while gaining experience for future employment. the course is taught in a way i can learn the best in the classroom and outside.

the facilities are very well kept

the tutors are very helpful and give us very productive feedback

You are encouraged to find information and be responsible for your learning but with guidance and support where necessary. There is no downside to this learning environment.

I have paid teaching at the college.

I don’t want to be involved as a part time student. I have family and work commitments which take priority.

Library and online facilities are good. The campus is clean and welcoming. The building can be a little cold.

I don’t live in the area.

Similarly I am not involved as a part time adult learner.

Tutors are committed and supportive

Experience and Knowledge is needed

A lot of contraversy due to dairy farming or livestock farming sparks debate every lesson making it impossible to actually learn the curriculum...i think people should be made aware not to be biased when applying

Not enough experince in the animal center and the levels 1 2 and 3 handle the animals way too much when most are nocturnal

Very good although at the start of the year a tutor took a disliking to me, they need to stop treating us like the college kids

Give you opportunities to increase you cv skills, such as first aid courses ect. They also set up a works placement in your second year which will also be good for the field of work your planning on going into when you finish the course.

The teachers are brilliant, they explain things so you understand them and they give you the materials to help with your assignments throughout the course.

I don’t get involved and wouldn’t know how.

Brilliantly. The libraries are always well stocked with various books. The staff are always on hand to help at any time. They are also easy accessible online.

Busy at times but nothing more than the norm.

Amazing. The tutors are there to help as much as they possibly can. Through going to their office to see them, after lessons and even email at any time. They are extremely supportive and are a credit to the college.

We have always had the support and guidance of our tutors when helping determine our career path after college

I really like how both practical and theoretical skills are incorporated, which I feel not all courses of this type do. I do wish that we had more structure when it came to giving out assignments and deadlines, as they seem to overlap and I then struggle with time management.

The course itself is very worked based and this is supplied through Bridgend college or via your own means. The course is very career determined and strives to make you the best you can be. The experiences through class activities allow you to meet scenarios you may not encounter until later in your career, so you care prepared in all elements in your line of work. The help and support of staff is great.

the amount of paperwork can be a little daunting at first along but you soon get used to this and once completed a few times you can get done. The support of tutors is great at Bridgend and they are always available if you have queries or issues.
