City College Norwich - Norwich

Not a bad place. I'm seriously disappointed by its complete lack of computer science courses, but the facilities and the campus are welcoming and pleasant, as are the course instructors. I was able to acquire my English Language GCSE here as a private candidate, and although contacting the examination department was a Hellish exercise, the actual examination procedure wasn't bad - I merely wish they had used a digital clock, for I tend to misread analogue time.

The canteen lady attempted scamming me from my typical amount of nacho cheese and called me a "rude boy" after wanting me to pay for a absolute scam of a meal and me refusing

I am currently studying here. I have a learning disability and I am unsupported by tutors. I definitely am thinking about dropping out. They have no support in place for anyone with austism at all. I’m not impressed definitely made a mistake by choosing this university

I did 4 years of art and design studies here and it was the best years I'd had, socially and practically. If it weren't for the committed and friendly tutors I wouldn't be where I am now as an artist, so I have them to thank.

In regards to the college, it's always very active with things going on and there's plenty of courses to choose from. The atmosphere is lively and I don't recall ever coming across anyone hostile, personally. The only thing I hate is the college administration which I found to be unhelpful and on a "power trip". Otherwise, it's a great college to study at and I recommend it fully.

Employed me, my wife, both my boys and educated one.of them. Nothing but good things to say about this place. Young people can be supported to study pretty much anything they want at the College's different sites. It's practical, academic or both. Whether you want to learn a trade or go on to Uni, it's a great place to start.

An absolutely lovely college let down by staff burnout. Learning Support Advisors are going to food banks to eat, on minimum wage, expected to carry out PEGS medical for students in inclusive learning. Tutorial Supervisors expected to do lecturing and counselling roles for 60p above minimum wage, with high caseload of up to 300 students and 16 groups per week.

Lecturers expected to do invigilation. Wellbeing Service 8 week wait for students. Good staff forced to leave to pay bills. College uses lecturer sessional contracts so staff have no security or pay over holidays, basically zero hour contracts. Very sad.

I came to this college, with seemingly no hope of a future, all my friends moving onto better things, and into an environment where nothing was familiar.

I left it going to my top choice university, more confident having made some really good friends there, and being given hope about my future as a whole.

I can't speak for everyone, but the people I met there were amazing, both staff and students alike, and for me at least the Sixth Form, most of all the Psychology department, was extremely engaging and informative with their teaching in a way I haven't seen before or since. It is the only institution I have gone through that I feel had the support required for students that was easily accessible to them.

City College Norwich doesn't deserve the reputation it is given, it is far better than such; I hold it in the highest regard, and words don't do it justice how grateful I am towards them.

Just checking out a few courses for my son and what's available at the city college for further education. Very helpful morning and good information given. It has changed a lot from when I was a student so if you haven't been in a while it's worth a walk round.
