City of Bristol College - Bristol

Anthony S.

I visited the college this week, not with a view to study there, but to meet with students and staff, to discuss other issues.

There a car park around the corner; a little of the expensive side (£10 for 4 hours), but there were spaces, and it is a short walk to the college.

Inside the building they have a security barrier, and you need to create a visitors badge before you can get in. I found the reception staff quite helpful.

The internal decoration seems a bit basic, but there are colourful signs to help direct you in central areas, if not in all locations.

As a visitor, I was escorted to the relevant floor & room. It did seem that we were taking a longer route than necessary, which subsequently proved to be the case. I can imagine that even those that had been there a while might still struggle to navigate the corridors.

They seem to have a lot of equipment available, and it all appears to be suitable for the task and working as it should.

I found the students to be really engaged, thoughtful, and willing to listen. It was a diverse audience, and a pleasure to work with them.

An absolutely awful education establishment! Tutors calling the students ‘failures’ isn’t going to help them attend and achieve the grades they need. Get better staff.

Very happy with my auntie (Chuef Mrs Babarinde) at the visit to the City of Bristol College today, at the City Saloon. The students were all very well equipped and busy. Very clean environment 👌 👍 noticed tòo.

Went to enrol for my course, receptionist tild me they are understaffed so I had to wait for an unspecified time to the single person there handling documents to enrol. Ridiculous service, is this really a place to study?

Adult full time learners and neurodivergent folk be aware that you will not be supported at Bristol Parkway motor school. The environment is not set up to support sensory/social needs in any way shape or form and no funding is available to support adults. No quiet space is offered, you will be expected to use the busy library to get away from people and be expected to wear noise cancelling headphones during lectures. The college is not set up to support people with additional needs and the senior manager isn't interested in hearing feedback or taking responsibility for improving this. Much of the workshop equipment is damaged beyond repair and the college is very reluctant to spend money on providing new learning equipment. I have reported all of this but have been met with denial and excuses. At no point has the college reflected on or acknowledged the impact this has had on me. Think very carefully before handing any money over, maybe opt for the installments if you're going to risk it as you will not receive a refund if you leave, regardless of circumstances. It was not made clear to me before payment that I would receive a different level of support than other students, had I known, I wouldn't have continued with enrolment and lost my money.

Very good college course wise. Nice lecturers, good amount of supplies and good teaching.
However, the lifts have both been breaking on and off for a while, meaning theres no access to upper or lower floors for the people who need them. The support with support teachers isnt very good either, hardly any staff for support.
