Bradford College Reviews

The quality of education is questionable -only seminars and pointless discussions but no lectures or anything. They take a minimal effort to teach anything -you will be always told to study on your own plus teachers will complain that students don't do enough extra reading. Once you've paid you're on your own. Plus administration is hilariously dysfunctional - I finished in September 2019, we had a graduation comedy (oops I meant a ceremony) in November; however, our diplomas were not ready and we were advised to wait for further communication. It's January 2020, I already sent a complaint but the college is not answering to anything and I still don't have my diploma. Don't study there under any circumstances.

I'm studying at the university centre. The buildings are very nice, and they'll listen to you if you have any problems. For example, there was no blinders on the windows (which is huge, it's replacing the wall at one side of the classroom), so we sent an email to our course tutor, and a week later they fixed this issue by installing brand new nice looking blinds. We also argued about the noise in the open area classrooms, and now they actually started to build walls to make 3 seperate classroom in the open area, and it will be finished in January. Most of the teachers are very experienced, I just hope they will be staying, because the College is trying to save money by firing lecturers from the HE Computing dep. (It would be a huge loss for them to fire good teachers like Maroof, Matthew and Robert.) Btw, I also did my level 3 at this College. That was a mess. We didn't have teacher for nearly 5 months for one of the units. FE dep is very badly organised. But HE is impeccable A***

I'm on a BSc Computing course (awarded by the Uni of Bolton). The building is more then perfect, and they'll listen to your opinions. The lecturers are very nice and helpful. Most of them are very experienced and spent 15-20 years in the industry before they decided to become a teacher. The course structure is very well organised.

Personally I wouldn't recommend this college at all. The campus is great and offers many facilities such as cafes,library and a friendly environment. But the teaching was low standard many days tutors were absent, there was a strike or some other disruption in the lesson. Few students also had lesson clashes which kept going on for about a month. This meant they lost plenty of time because of this disorganised system and therefore had to do independent study. Most of the times there were no cover lessons when the tutor was absent. Overall its not bad but the college should spend more on improving teaching quality and staff then wasting money on buildings.
