The College is a great place but I have had numerous issues regarding the IT centre there as it is terrible. When I tried to apply for my second bus term rider, I was unable to sign into my email account, when I approached the IT staff, they seemed uninterested to help me, months later i am still having issues regarding my Petroc Microsoft account and I hope that they will soon realise the issues students face and will resolve them promptly.
Fantastic place. The staff are so welcoming. The tutors are both professional, friendly, funny, kind and make you feel at ease no matter what level of learning you are at or are interested in. They have a massive variety of courses to study and are very helpful with course guidance and indeed the mapping of the college. I would highly recommend this college. My son has begun this year doing a very practical course, he had already experienced college in another county and he was not very happy there. It wasn't for him so he left. The caring staff at petroc in barnstaple were so good to him and guided him to where he is at the moment , starting a course, in a new place with new people and having some disabilities himself, it has been a great success. He wakes up in the morning and is so happy to go , that he is almost a changed person. I realise it is early days , however, I do think this is the best place for him to learn and grow.
Wouldn’t of been nice to received a phone call 6 weeks plus before, last day of college about any issue/work not being finish . It’s too late when they come home. And you being told that hes failed and to expect a call because of half a missing assignment. Please NOTE THIS PETROC FINDING A PHONE NUMBER ON THE LAST DAY OF COLLEGE IS TO LATE SHOULD OF BEEN DONE EARLIER. SADLY the above in relation to engineering. But also didn’t get the support from tutors in A levels a couple of years ago. THankfully they are both are hard working boys and already have good jobs.
I contacted Petroc to assist me with an issue I had with Vision2Learn. The issue was that V2L unfairly removed me from a course I was doing with them. V2L have done everything to avoid me. So, because I could not reach out to the delivering institute Capita who are impossible to contact, I opted to go for Petroc because I know they also run V2L courses. They claim they did contact V2L on my behalf, because V2L have been so cold with me. And apparently it's logged as a high level complaint. But I've had nothing from V2L. Nothing at all. And that means nothing. So, is that right? Justified? Is it ok to do that? Is it moral? Ethical? I'm not so sure now but it seems to be a trend and it seems Petroc are now trying to wash their hands of me. But, I won't let go. So because of not following professional standards I'm awarding them a poor review. I'd have liked to make it better, but it has to be earned I feel. Petroc don't feel I'm being fair but they have professional standards the same as V2L, and so far their professional standards are just as bad. Just thought I'd share this.
Absolutely useless, next to no help for anybody who needs any extra support. I got told I would be called back in 1 or 2 days to speak about possible options, it's now been a month an a half, they're not responding to emails, anwsering the phone or even calling me back despite the multiple voicemails I have left. Overall I would not recommend this place at all.
I am a mature student study plumbing and I have found the college excellent. The Covid process the college have in place are exceptional. My tutor is very knowledgeable and thorough. Overall it’s a great place to study
Aesthetically pleasing environment and perfect for learning with peace of mind. The staff are really amazing.
My daughter has aspergers syndrome, which means she needs help to organise herself and maintain focus. This college let her down right from the point of her interview when she was told she couldn't take a course in health and social care because she has an ASD. If that isn't discrimination then I don't know what is. The next part of the saga was equally uninspiring of confidence. My daughter was struggling with her coursework, so I booked an appointment with one of her tutors to discuss her educational needs. To cut a long story short, I was told that all the extra measures we had seen in play at her school were not practised at the college, our daughter was expected to manage her time and workload herself, something she will probably never be able to do. In essence they let her down, and if it hadn't been for my wife hearing about an organisation called project search she would probably be unemployed, but because of search she has the job in health and social care that she wanted in the first place. Massive fail Petroc.
Tricky to navigate and park at busy times but very friendly cafe run by vulnerable students that was super helpful even though I turned up early!
Love this place great vibes
