My experience as a mature student on a PGCE course was mixed. Tutors very friendly and knowledgeable. However, IT and finding out information about who does what and when is lacking in clarity. The actual training wasn't very organised in school and very much a mixed experience. ad hoc would describe it perfectly. Heart in the right place but its a business and to be fair if I'd have known what my training would have been like, I would have gone elsewhere. read more

Waste of time and money. IT services don't want to know. Tutors telling you to try harder, even tough you told them many times that you have problem with accessing on-line text-books. read more

Everything is delivered over confusing website. When many students complained, many times that it is confusing. Subject tutors are only laughing in your face that it is well organised and what is the problem. The problem is that I can't access my course materials or have to spend hours trying to hunt down what I need. Nobody have time for such nonsense. It should be as easy as opening a paper based text-book, otherwise it is complete nonsense. IT Support would do with training on customer service. When you get there and it is busy they will shovel you a piece of papers that supposed to explain how to fix your problem and nobody will be even interested in looking at your need twice. Unnecessary layers of complexity with IT systems that make it impossible to work with with certain requirements or devices. Teaching course in fact is a course in bureaucracy. Tutors won't help you. Waiting for you to figure it out all yourself. Waste of time and money. read more

The university itself is useful. However the library facilities are lacking. Nights out and nights at the bar are good but disappointing when they close at midnight read more
