STUDENT LIFE

From funding to career guidance, we have a range of services available to help you reach your full potential whilst at college.

Individual support - As part of your programme, you will be assigned a personal tutor who you will meet with on a regular basis. They are there to listen to you, support you with workload and projects. You will receive one-to-one sessions with them, allowing you to have valuable contact time.

Keeping you safe - It’s important that you feel safe when you are at college. The Safeguarding Team is located at every campus and are available at all times if you are worried about anyone or anything. We also enforce that all staff, students and visitors are expected to wear ID badges.

Guidance - We have a team of dedicated career experts that will make sure you are on track to pursue a career you are passionate about. If you are unsure which path to take, the Guidance Team can provide free, impartial advice on careers and applying for jobs.

The Chaplaincy - The college is home to a diverse and lively community, filled with people from varying backgrounds and world views. The role of the Chaplaincy is to care for staff and students. They offer a confidential, non-judgemental listening ear and support. They support our community of all faiths and none.

Disabled Students’ Allowance (DSA) - DSA is extra support to cover any additional study related costs that you may incur because of a mental health problem, long term illness or any other disability. DSA does not need to be repaid and the type of support and funding you will receive depends on your individual needs.
