Football Journalism, BA Hons FullTime

The course offers many opportunities for students and the quality of teaching is exceptional. They all have a great amount of experience in journalism and bring in brilliant guests including even Martin Tyler. The course, however, promotes going to games frequently and it is very expensive especially if you're on the lowest student finance. However, the further you get into the course you can start to earn access into press boxes which means you can start saving money. read more

The course is organised well. Most lecturers are passionate and knowledgeable. The course is modern and focuses on journalism that is relevant today. Only complaint is, due to COVID, we haven't learn vital skills like learning to use camera until our final year read more

Very unprofessional teachers, clear they never wanted to teach and have used this as a back up option. Unprofessionally they are lovely people that appear to care about you, however the moment your grades slip they don’t want to know you. A lot of the content they teach isn’t relevant to anything and they are very half assed about it all. Clear they have slipped through the regulation board’s cracks. read more

Lecturers didn't know my name and had clear favourites. Bar a few who were actually engaging they generally made you feel like you're still at school. read more
