awful place. made my child cry. went for a music interview and didn’t even give them time to do the things they were told. extremely unprofessional. rushed. teachers are cruel and expect professional quality from a child. would not recommend
Extremely supportive A Level staff. A big thanks to you all who helped and supported us and still are during our current circumstances. I can't thank you all enough, for helping my son in many ways.
Absolutely fantastic this college, I’ve studied maths and English here, and I can’t thank the staff, tutors and other mentors enough, they have all done so much for me and to have that belief of me actually passing my courses is just amazing
This college can’t even keep their own proper records and incessantly email me about my children attending. Not only do I not have children, I live 400 miles away. Despite endless messages asking them to remove me from their subscription list, it goes ignored and I continue to be pestered on a regular basis. How they can claim to teach anyone when they themselves are quite inept is beyond me.
Wigan and Leigh College is a state General Further and Higher Education College based at six locations in the towns of Wigan and Leigh in Greater Manchester, England, United Kingdom. Currently there are over 1,000 staff members employed, and more than 17,000 students enrolled in full-time or part-time courses. The college's programmes of study include: General Certificate of Education GCSEs, BTEC First Diplomas, Advanced Level UK, National Diplomas, Higher National Diplomas and First Degrees. Wigan and Leigh College was formed in April 1992 through the merger of Wigan College of Technology formerly Wigan Mining and Technical College and Leigh College.
to be honest, it’s a great college. Amazing even, got me to uni and helped a lot. However, I would avoid the Media department like the plague; that part could do with new staff. One teacher there, Natasha Hart is a complete weirdo. Started crying when some students decided to leave cause she was more than 15 minutes late to class, only to say she was right next door lol. Could’ve told the students, doesn’t take 5 seconds. I’ve heard another story about how to said a student threw a chair at her but that was a lie. She’s very controlling and cries when students stick up for themselves.
I've only done one year so far and at the beginning of the year I was really enjoying it but we got a new teacher and any time you feel like you're doing good, he puts you down. It just isn't a nice environment anymore I don't enjoy going here anymore, can't wait to leave next year. Although I have met amazing people, and made fantastic friendships that's probably the one good thing to come from this college.
Wigan and Leigh college is simply a Business first college second establishment who simply need bums on seats to make every class viable and no real effort is made if students are on a course that a future apprenticeship requires them to have an equivalent maths English c grade or above in older gcse grades and although on full time attendance they provide tuition for maths and English the teachers are from an agency and virtually every week there is a different teacher making progress very difficult with them not knowing where the pupil is at properly . Do yourself a favour go to any other college outside of Wigan borough as they are terrible ! Only when I left to another college that I progressed and continued with out problems to complete my apprenticeship which I was struggling to even get to level 1 with Wigan due to the above issues and even the assessors failing to visit me enough times at work to complete my required units towards my apprenticeship. If you complain they have this slimey man who’s job is to protect the college not help you ! All in all a total waste of time ….. believe me if your having problems leave Wigan and go to any nearby one like Bolton Warrington St. Helens and see the difference you will flourish with the support they provide with out the failures of Wigan business first college !
I would highly avoid studying at this college, I should of posted this sooner but never found the time. 3 years ago I was once a student here studying Health and Social level 1 and childcare level 1. Health and social was good but not the best, then when I studied childcare as they said my health and social grades wasn't good which prevented me from progressing. During childcare i received high levels of bullying and also got homophobicaly attacked by a so called friend at the time. When the college found out very little action was taken against the bullys which means they have no bullying policy what's so ever. The a few weeks later I was being talked about in class and when I attempted to defend myself they sent me out of class to go and see the head of the course and I was suspended then excluded by the heads of the course who was present at the time, but the bullys was still allowed to study there? awful place I'm so glad I've moved on to a new environment who treat me alot better than this place did.
Not a very good college. Majority of the staff are so rude and uncaring and have a disgusting attitude. The whole premises is very old fashioned and dilapidated inside, it could do with a major refurbishment - It is absolutely atrocious! Some of the staff are also very abrupt and on a few occasions have been known to swear which in my opinion is not at all professional and very disrespectful. Some staff don't even acknowledge you! The classrooms are very, very dirty and are quite miserable. I cannot stress enough that if you are considering becoming a student at the college, I suggest that you should look elsewhere - preferably somewhere where it is more friendly and clean!
