South Lanarkshire College

The college is horrible for special needs cause the lectures neglect, discriminate and brush off special need, if you have mental health they will force you to need a support worker and they expect you to have 1 (they didn't tell me until less than a week before college started and i done the entire you online), the college has a lack of freedom of speach. (i wrote done death and neglect on a piece of paper during a wellbeing class and yeah the lecture saw it and yeah just brushed it off like nothing happened

Very nice people and the lectures are great , sarah dawson is the best out of them all as she takes great pride and effort with her job and is a lovely women x

Lots of different courses. Excellent teaching staff.

Avoid like the plague. If you are disabled or mentally ill they will offer “support” which means they’ll sit you in a room and tell you that if you’re actually going to need to use that support you will fail.

Had a lovely day withy daughter today getting our hair done. We are please to pay for the students to do our hair as part of their assessment/course work. A couple of very happy customers indeed xx

Good nice ppl.An update:Just been again for a 'Turkish Shave by the hairdressing students.Again, 1st class, the whole building is very professionally run.Recommended college.

South Lanarkshire College is a medium-size Scottish college with around 6000 students. In February 2008, staff and students moved to a new building on a new campus. In the new building a philosophy to do things differently was adopted with a strong focus on sustainable practices. Accordingly, there are no chalkboards, no overhead projectors and no televisions in any classrooms or workshops. PCs in classrooms are linked to the internet, and interactive whiteboards for high-engagement, interactive learning experiences with minimal paper use. There are no paper registers to record attendance. All attendance is monitored using proximity cards and electronic readers. Reports are generated automatically from the systems for various external organisations and emailed. This saves staff time as well as paper. Paper portfolios for SVQs in construction are no longer used. Lecturers use tablet PCs to record assessment outcomes and students build their portfolios electronically. After moving to electronic portfolios, we converted two no longer needed large storage rooms into classrooms. Sustainability is a key part of the college’s ethos statements, displayed prominently around the college. Students can access timetables, attainment results, progress reports and their own personal information through their mobile phones.

Did my HNC/HND legal services at SLC, unfortunately 70% of these course were online. Legal department were extremely helpful and taught us the materials we needed to know. Recommend this place highly if you’re looking for good learning support and a nice student space

Great place to study and further your career path x

Excellent college offering high standard of education, also having a fantastic support in place for students with learning difficulties. Tutors and staff alike are supportive, helpful and very welcoming. I loved my time at this college and I would highly recommend to anyone.I completed the HNC in Counselling. I really wished you offered HND in Counselling too, as I had to go to a different college to complete it. I missed the lecturers at SLC. They were top notch. High standard and supportive.
