Bournville College
Reviews
Really bad, tutors change every month, they really need to get itself together would DEFO not recommend
This is my college it's great and good for learning
Lost all my coursework the day before i finished my course. Massively in deby so no help for funding or travel. Multiple disturbances knocked the course i was studying off the rails. Not worth putting yourself through hell with no support.
One of my friends got stabbed outside of this place, it really shouldn't be a college. It's an absolutely awful place
I am currently studying IT and L2 English, I sat on Exam with a couple of people in the last two weeks, there wasn't even a clock I did ask for the clock. They all ignored us, We had no idea how much we spent in each questions, such a great college but The Exam Department failed to provide a clock, we must have at that time as it is necessary. I hope next this would be solved.
Worked here many years under principal norman cave didn't go well. Huw meads media studies teacher who runs transcendental meditation in the midlands abused his position to sell the gurus to the world. Meads did well here because he sucked up to cave people like me who told the truth didn't last long. Best thing ever happened was cave getting the chop hope meads joined him.
Currently studying here and honestly it feels as though only half of the tutors actually know how to be a tutor. All the rooms never seem to be a decent temperature, they are either saunas or freezers and there are little to no signs inside the building to help you navigate.
Norman cave former principal here started off long haired grebo in pub with students all time thinking he could not get sacked coz he was the union natfhe at time. Because of his great looks rose up ranks coz all management here were women then best part is once he made it to top he sacked all of them. Remember driving past a pile of rubble in bournville thinking that was his worst mistake now seeing a photo of him bald as a coot investing in a new building made him go bust. Huw meads a media studies lecturer last time I spoke to him just over year ago was singing praises about him that was the cave economy if you sucked up to him like meads you went higher if like me you tell the brutal truth I didn't last long at this college.
I've been there for a month during summer, really good classes, library and even movie room and Gym.
