The lecturers are very caring and considerate. They will listen and help you as much as they can, and when explaining courses they break it down very simple.
Best aspect of my uni experience so far is definitely the dedicated staff team at the halls - they always are around for a friendly chat and make sure that we are all safe and happy; they’ve made living away from home a hell of a lot easier. Not only this, but the staff on my course (the education staff) are incredibly friendly, helpful, supportive and passionate about what they do, which really does reflect on the sessions that we are getting. The facilities are also great - especially study areas in all campuses. Worst aspect is the disability support for students - the team is unsupportive, from my experiences, and I feel as though I have to justify myself with every little thing. They are also really difficult to contact. Not only this; but the inconsistent communication that the university has with us and its staff which has led to things being much more stressful at times.

There's a nice atmosphere. Its very open and buzzing with life. Everything's very modern and clean, the library is very varied to accommodate different study preferences. However, the main university campus is quite far from most accommodation. After the uni bus stopped being free this has made getting in either costly or challenging in other ways for many. This would change by either introducing closer accommodation or returning the bus to being free.

I love the convenience of the location and how close everything is to each other The lecturers are all so helpful and nice Having to pay for the uni bus (when this was offered for free in the past) does suck a bit but its mostly walkable distances anyways

The Best thing I found is that they're well qualified and they put in great efforts to whatever they do. However there are few worst parts I've experienced, there is no much clarity in the information they provide during the classes hours, mainly about Assessments, Procedures, and a properly fixed time schedule.
It's a very nice campus with lovely staff, but the uni bus price is extortionate
Great environment and workspace, clean and amazing staff. Very welcoming
The lectures are all extremely hands on while still encouraging students to think critically for themselves. It could be improved by better transport to the university and better parking facilities.
I love the facilities available especially in T-block for healthcare students there’s lots of valuable resources. To improve there could be more available seating in the atrium/ entrance

The busses being free again

Best thing is the practical element, most students I know are getting deep into their industry and gaining realistic employable skills. Worst part is staffing as we don’t have a range of expertise across the staff, they’re all very focused on the same areas of work.
University has been a positive experience overall, especially because some of my tutors are genuinely supportive and always willing to help. The campus environment is also really good, and the student meal deals make day to day life much easier. However, not everything is perfect, some modules don’t clearly explain what needs to be done during classes, which can make the learning process confusing at times.
Staff are supportive but they can handle incidents like panic attacks better. They have security staff who are the first responders to them and it's humiliating being escorted by them when all that's happened is that you've had a panic attack. Despite that, staff do their best to support students with their wellbeing. The union is tiny, management aren't the best people. They hold student events which are either free or extremely cheap.
I think it’s a course like no other.
The facilities are amazing. And the support here makes me feel very settled.
The campuses are local and easy to travel to
