Telford College

Amazing College, definitely deserves 5 stars!The staff team are so friendly, always supporting me and the rest of my tutor group whenever we need help.Satisfied with the food hygiene in the canteens.Security Guards are very professional.General health and safety in this college is very good.I would highly recommend this college.

The Maths department at Telford College are terrible and inadequate. I am not publicly disclosing which student I am or have been so therefore using this private account. I would give the Maths department 0 stars if I could.Also, I have found out the Maths department have breached safeguarding regulations in the UK because one time they told me I can sit an exam with a bunch of grown ups in an adult sitting and I'm a minor under the age of 18 so said no because I don't think that is right.I certainly feel more comfortable sitting exams with young people and not with a bunch of grown adults who have not been DBI checked by the college. For all I know I could be sitting in a room with a dangerous individual who's taking his exam.What are the college's management team going to do with this department moving forward? Because I'm not even the only one who has had a bad experience with the Maths team at Telford College. This clearly should be a focus department the college should be looking at improving.On a positive note the English department is one of the best in my opinion. I also have a great GCSE English grade.It shouldn't be one department doing better than the other.Thanks for the lack of support and for letting me down Telford College Maths department.P.S anyone else who has had or is having a bad experience with the Maths team in what ever way at this college don't worry it's not the end of the world. Never give up :)

I used to love the college in my first year straight after covid had hit but it declined during my second year with multiple teachers leaving within the space of a few months at a time which deeply disrupted everyone’s learning.We had 3 psychology teachers in the space of second year whom all was fired or quit for various reasons.The college isn’t too bad in itself, great environment and some teachers are simply amazing and will definitely help you but with the lack of consistency it did make the experience towards the end poor and ultimately frustrating with teachers not taking it seriously when these feelings were expressed.

Had a good couple of days learning. Shame there's no air conditioning or drinks in the class rooms.

Waste of time, getting ignored at every step, no help from customer service when asking about something more than they can reply with simple copy->paste message.

My teachers were ok. studied here for 2 years. But had hardly any support especially when it came to my mental health within the college, safeguarding team were appalling with support and the finance team were pure rude when i tried sorting out grants etc. ended up having to drop out because I did not have a good experience. I don't even think the teachers enjoy working there half the time and you can tell. I also know people who have been bullied or beaten up on the grounds and the way the college deal with it all is shocking. Try to cover it all up to make them look good. My advice? Go to shrewsbury or wolverhampton college instead. better than this lousy excuse of a education facility.

I would like to express my dissatisfaction with the institution in question and caution others against considering it. The teaching staff exhibit a concerning lack of commitment as they frequently depart without notice, resulting in a lack of educational instruction. The institution appears to lack coherence as we receive inconsistent information from various tutors and our submitted work often goes unmarked, resulting in undue hardship.I must express my concern regarding the college's inadequate support for obtaining work experience. The institution simply releases us into the world and expects us to secure placements without providing any form of assistance. This approach is particularly distressing given the current competitive job market, and I urge the college to review and improve their approach to supporting students in this regard.I strongly advise seeking an alternative option if feasible, as the current situation at this institution appears untenable. Even being taught remotely from home would be preferable. Wishing you the best, and may your journey be blessed.

Big shout out for Joe Hodgkiss! I had to redo my English exam as I missed my exam and have had the absolute pleasure of working with Joe who has been so incredibly helpful in helping me prepare for exams. Usually I find teachers to be a bit difficult to listen to out of lack of expression and sometimes understanding on my part, but Joe has been so wonderful and creative in all of their lessons and I feel confident in my abilities as a student in what I'm doing. Regardless of my upcoming results, a massive thank you to you Joe in keeping me calm and level headed.

Went to this college for two years, completing A-Levels & at least once each day I contemplated dropping out of my courses, despite having a passion for one of them for 10 years... not for the course content, but for the lack of organisation, continuity and management found within 7th form.Over the two years, I had over 15 teachers teach me (many of which were not specialist) for my three courses, no teacher stayed for more than a month (not until later on in the second year), which nurtured a genuine sense of abandonment amongst myself and peers.Raise a concern? Voice your worries assertively? Very little, if anything at all, will be done about it. There may be a high chance that you'll be called dramatic" and "crazy" by management

If I could turn back time I'd go to Shrewsbury college 100%.Doesn't seem to be any structure to this college. Staff have been lovely to deal with but lacking coordination. One person says ask for assignments to be filled out and will provide another set of assignments on the next appointment. Another assessor then says this is what you need to do for the year
