Milton Keynes College Bletchley Campus - Milton Keynes

James Enticott

At this college, I did the Football Level 3 course. In this course, we learned about multiple things that were all stated in the induction day, so a definite good start, but things got worse as the timeline went on.

The 1st sessions on football I was invited for pre season, at the time I wasn't aware of what it was so I sent an email, and it never got replied to, I turned up on that day and I got sent away because I didn't have something, I can't remember what it was but they definitely needed to be informative in their email.

The year carried on as normal and everything was fine up until a monthlater (September), I've always been bullied throughout my school years and someone decided to do it right infront of the teacher and the teacher suspended the guy for a couple days so this was good (Felt like the person who bullied me got a free holiday).
Later on that month, I was in the thinking of s*e and as soon as I told the Tutor this the college shit their pants and temporarily suspended me for a bit because they were too scared, I literally had to beg them to come back (I came back 2 months later meaning I had missed vital time, so i ask3d for the teachers lessons, then the teachers said 'Look at the stuff in teams' and didn't want to bother to go over it after I originally came back. The later of year was me in and out and people being idiots.

The 2nd year was where everything seemed to be going up. Well, that's what I thought anyway. At the start, it was alright. People seemed to be welcoming me back quickly, and everything was getting better in terms of the general environment. But people seem to make fun of you for just existing at this point. If you're any different to them, there's no hope anymore. So far the 2nd year has been mid, meduim problems from multiple people and the lessons have been alright for the people who are actually interested in the sport (Most of the class) has lost interest in the lessons.

I think my main problems are mainly the people, but it's Bletchley, so I get it is what it is. The teachers have been overall friendly, and I believe they are good people when being taken to.

I can't recommend this college so far because of the environment. I would recommend another college that has a better environment and better teachers overall to actually stay interested in the course and life in general.

This is something that's not a priority at all and shouldn't be No1 interms of your main college list.

Edit:
College replied with an automated message proving they dont care. Shows the state of it, reduced to 1*.

I will don't recommend this college to anyone because this college didn't bother to phone an ambulance when I was suffering with an ear infection which ear infections should be treated at hospital not the doctors. They banned using AI in this college but this is a message to all students, if you are not allowed to use AI in this college, you have the opportunity to use AI chats on your own device and use it to do your work and tell no one. They allowed a student who was antisemitic (who's name was Rafe Millo) and the college board got involved and expelled that student for spreading antisemitism. The last thing is do not bother doing GCSE English exams because the grading and marking system is broken because the Conservative government changed it since 2010.

Bad experience here, tutors don't seem interested in actually helping their students. Alot of bulling happend ij the 2years I was there and it got to the point I had to get a restraining order against a student which wellbeing defended and refused to help me and tried shutting me up...
This college isn't recommended at all, I even went to higher ups to say about the issue and they were unaware of the situation

I don’t recommend this college for anyone. There are only a few teachers who actually listen and help, the students are all so rude and horrible, if you don’t like the course you take they won’t let you leave. Just not a nice place to go

I went to bletchley college to do hairdressing the teachers was very helpful and very good the only thing I would say that was bad about this college the people in it are just so rude and horrible. I know you can’t change people but I’ve seen a lot of people get bullied here which is not somewhere you want to be and study I would just advise people to stay clear of Milton Keynes college both ones

This college is a pure joke, they're treatment and understanding of people is pathetic to say the least. I am a motorcyclist and I was working at the college for 2 weeks on the National Citizen Service programme and everyday the staff here would harass me regarding my motorcycle and where I parked it, where do they expect bikers to park when they haven't provide any safe and secure motorcycle parking at the campus.

The college does not take the increase in motorcycle theft and crime in the UK seriously, in the last 2 year motorcycle related crime has risen over 600% yet the college does not see this to be a serious problem when motorcyclist visit the college and just want to feel safe in leaving their pride and joy parked outside.

I have emailed the college on 6 separate times regarding this issue with my latest email being a official complaint a week ago and not once have they ever responded to me. What does this tell you about the care and running of this college? If this college can't take people concerns seriously I highly doubt they take the young people's education seriously either.

I would give Milton Keynes College Bletchley Campus minus stars if Google allowed it.

I did HND in fine art there. DO NOT do a HND at Milton Keynes college, better to not get there at all. Bullied by a tutor, empty promises and we did not do what the course promised. Made a complaint and they ignored it for months, did it again and then they chose the tutors FRIEND to have a meeting with us about the complaint, of course she sided with them!! Their friend! Then we waited for months and got a late apology, we met up with different people who seemed to listen.....seemed. I gave a whole file of evidence, from our private Facebook group where we complained about the bullying etc. But then they sent an email asking for the dates of each incident!! It was in the file I gave them!! Doing their best to drag it out to make me give up. They have put me off higher education and I won't let my sister go to that terrible, snake- ridden place. I tell everyone about my class's experience and tell people to avoid it. There were 9 of us and we all felt the same. We were told that after the course we could go into year 3 at uni. NO uni let us! All said that we hadn't done up to the level of a 2 year at uni, they said it was what we lacked at the college and it wasn't us individually. Terrible, it really hit me and I was so down after that experience and I still cry about it now.

I recommend Milton Keynes College, Bletchley as the best education place i’ve ever been too. Such a mix of culture and ages in all courses, the tutors are amazing and so helpful a problem is always solved, the canteen is amazing such no prices and amazing food, the classrooms are really nice and modern the stairs are really nice and such an open college, i loved it here (I was doing hairdressing and retaking my GCSEs)
