If you struggle with anxiety or depression or any of the sort, I DO NOT recommend attending. They say they will offer you help but don’t do anything. I have bad anxiety but tried my best to keep attending as much as I could which I explained to them over a phone meeting that they asked for due to my attendance in which they said they could offer counselling or a note for the doctors so that the doctors could take me a bit more seriously instead of dismissing it as teenage hormones or laziness. No one ever came and spoke to me about anything after the phone call and with having anxiety it is hard to confront people. Due to my attendance being so low, they decided to cancel my digital bus pass without warning AFTER I had already attended college for the day (the woman I spoke to for help said to me they had no obligation to tell me OR help me since it’s my fault and I should’ve known) leaving me with only one option of getting home, which was having my boyfriend meet me by bus and pay for my fair back.

He finished this course June 2024, it’s now almost February 2025 and he hasn’t received his results. He’s called over ten times, with no clear resolution in sight, just “we know you’ve passed but we don’t know the exact grade” He has constantly been chasing this up since August when everyone else received their results, and yet still no resolvement.

Wouldn’t recommend this college at all. A disgusting lack of sympathy and unhelpful at the...
