Not the best college in the North East. You learn very little. I did a business course and the teachers couldn’t even teach properly, they had very little understanding of what learners like me could achieve, in fact, they had to keep looking at papers, because they hadn’t a clue on how to teach the others and I on the course. No wonder Newcastle College had a bad Ofsted Report. If your looking to go to a College in the North East, I would recommend Gateshead College because it is Outstanding.

Never been a full time student but I've had good experiences doing part time art evening courses. The art campus is a modern building and nice to have to go to. I have done courses in the other older buildings and it does make a difference. The section of courses I was doing centred around using Macs and learning Adobe design packages, in this case Illustrator and In Design. After doing them, I wish I had signed up to do more. The teachers were friendly, informative and helpful. I've left with a good amount of knowledge under my belt and would recommend to anyone. I can only wonder what could be achieved in full time.

This place is BRILLIANT! I'm a full time first year student studying Level 3 Graphics and I LOVE IT! The lecturers know what they're talking about and they want us to do well. I'm so glad I chose to study at such an AMAZING college!

Before I even joined Newcastle College, I was told by many people how good it was; I thought I was joining a game course but as it turns out it was more to do with IT and less about games. Regardless of what the course had to offer, I never regretted joining for two reasons: 1) Meet new people and make new friends 2) Gain a better education unlike my secondary school As for the course itself, it was, at best, alright. I decided to go back for level three which was titled 'Games' but as the first semester went on, I couldn't do the Games Design lessons all because of my Maths and English. Why couldn't they replace another lesson that was irrelevant to the course was beyond my knowledge. My complaints: 1) Some teachers aren't very nice to the students, not pointing out names 2) Most of the work we receive are not related to the actual course 3) Rather than being on the main campus, my course was moved to another building, meaning I have to get up really early just to travel over there 4) We are only given a week to complete a lot of assignments that require more than the week given 5) Some teachers don't know what they're doing most of the time and the lessons are not organised for us to understand Again, I'm not pointing out names but I will say this, I am highly disappointed with this college along with some of the teachers. While some good moments have came out of this course like my English and Maths lessons (pretty much the reason why I consider coming back for), I can't help but think that I have made a mistake with returning for another year; I hope with the months remaining this college will improve.
