Great teaching help-both by students and teachers. For example, we have optional lessons where we have older students to help us rather than lecturers. read more

This university is really great. The fact that it isn’t so big means you can get to know people outside of your course. Also the course and module leads are very friendly and open to help you out. There are a range of things to do with the students union and societies as well. read more
