Advice & Guidance
There are well-qualified staff in Student Services to offer guidance and
counselling services on any concerns you may have whilst you are at college,
such as finance, careers, higher education and personal problems. Student
Services deal with all sorts of enquiries and give advice on anything from bus
passes to student grants, timetables to lost property.
A team of Education and Careers Advisers provide ongoing support to all students
wishing to pursue higher education or employment. Trained Advisors work with you
to advise on University or job opportunities and help you complete UCAS forms,
write personal statements and develop your CV. We also have an Aimhigher
Learning Mentor who is here to give extra support to the College's Gifted and
Talented students.nts and staff through the Student Forum. They meet to discuss student issues, and a representative from each tutor group attends to bring these to the attention of College Managers.
