9 Cornwall College reviews

Due to a new campus was hard waiting for resources but now its ok . There isnt really alot of room for all students and we are stuck in one room for two days a week due the sites requirements of staff meetings . Food is not easy to access due to a long walk so packed lunches are brought in everytime . No vending machine for pick me up snacks . Only a few computers so we tend to bring our own laptops as they always seem to be in use . Printer is in a diff buildong so it can not be quickly accessed which is a must .

This is the best there is always someone on hand tutor wise but outside of that timings are hard to find when you are in class and the tech man is up at the different end only in certain times

Most Is you can approach the teachers with anything they always cater in any situation and really do care for their students . Least Facilities are abit sparse in terms of room space and sometimes equipment does fail like projector or the wifi

The skills i am learning definatly are boosting my transferable skills . The careers advice offer a great service where we can go and reserach with an advisor to see where we can go next

They’re really helpful and approachable

Lots of in-class learning with lots of contact with lecturers. The course utilises being close to the ocean and we go on boat trips learning surveying techniques and ID skills.

The college facilities are excellent for what is needed within the course.

There is plenty of support offered from the tutors and also previous students.

The teaching is laid back in a small class and with a verity of different ages. The classes are in classroom and not lecture theatres.

Very good at ensuring that skills are transferable

awesome, although the library has not enough computers coming up to deadlines.

There are many both extra-academic groups (such as CRAG, SINNG ect) and also pastoral support with approachable and friendly staff.

I like the variability of the lessons, from outdoor teachings on nearby sand dunes to formal lectures within a traditional learning environment. I'm unhappy how lessons are not rescheduled, even within some modules we have had only a handful of actual lessons.

We are taught PESD (personal employability skills and development) which aims to greatly support our lives beyond university

Not great for sports department but the teaching makes up for it.

The lecturers are supportive and encouraging, very helpful if any information is needed .

Course facilities are fantastic. Accommodation facilities could be improved.

I have had both personal and academic support. The accommodation wardens and my tutors really listen to what your consents are and offer tailored support so you don't just feel like anther number you seem valued and listened too.

I like the most the fact the teaching is practical and theory, so as a practical and visual learner I find most of the education easy to understand and learn. I like least the lectures in the lecture hall as they seem very impersonal and I dj t feel I can speak support in those lectures due to the size and structure of the fact the lecturer is far away from the seats in the lecture hall.
