OVERALL UNIVERSITY RATING

Tell us about your overall university experience so far.

Worst experience I’ve ever experience from a educational establishment. Won’t be coming back again and I strongly advice people look elsewhere. This place is a joke and a laughing stock. No real education or learning given. Doesn’t even deserve one star it’s that bad and corrupt.

Job Prospects

How does your uni make efforts to increase your employability (careers department, work placements, transferable skills)?

Poor. Teacher said there was no jobs for photography graduated and was extremely negative. No career advice really given or worth the while.

Course and Lecturers

What do you like most and least about the way your course(s) are taught?

Very bad teaching. Little support from learning support. Bullying was a constant issue. Uninterested course management, any issue raised to your LAC wasn’t even followed 90 percent of the time. Computers where filled with viruses do work was hard to complete. Poor career advice may as well have not been given. Bad equipment, damaged, broken or missing parts. No real learning everything was self taught. Tutor didn’t care about the class. Lessons where cancelled regularly or corrupted into chaos. Tutor turned up late or unprepared. Bullying was an issue but wasn’t dealt with when raised with any staff member. No responsibility is really taken everything is your fault not the colleges. Very biased lessons especially politically. Tutor was a joke to get hold of even when I was behind and needing advice and support on my subjects. Very chaotic learning environment and over filled classes.

How many contact hours per week do you have?

Uni Facilities

How good are your university's facilities?

Poor most of the time. Corrupted computers full of viruses or very slow. Very little books in the library. Damaged camera equipment. Uncleaned toilets. Crowded corridors. Overpriced food.

Local life

Is your university in a good location in terms of distance to accommodation and local amenities?

I loved the city life and social life hated the college couldn’t wait to get out.

Societies and Sports

How would you rate the variety of societies/sports?

Poor! Nothing is mentioned to you about any activities or clubs you can join or take part in.

Student Support

How good is the support offered by the uni? Think both academic (tutors/feedback) and personal (counselling, etc).

Very Very bad! Learning support may as well not exist. They never believe you if you have learning difficulties. They promise to give you extra support but they don’t. Teacher assistants are clueless and almost act as if they only turned up to get paid. No support if you fall behind with work it’s your responsibility. Learning support don’t want to know if you ask for support.
