I went to this college fora 6 week course in 2016. I did not like how to staff here treated me. One teacher told me if we needed paper, go to the cupboard and help yourself to paper, so I did. The next day, I did the same thing, I got some paper. Only this day we had a different teacher, who told me off as if I were a child for getting paper. Absolutely ridiculous! A woman telling me off as 21 year old adult for getting paper, it is pathetic. Another time, someone knocked over a chair by accident and did not pick it up. The teacher assumed it was me although it wasn't, and would not let me leave till I picked up the chair. Again, pathetic. Another teacher I had just refused to teach us because he was too busy using his phone to call his pregnant wife and his bank for financial situations he shouldn't even be telling us about. The staff who work there are a complete embarrassment.

Where can I start?!

Where can I start?!
The teachers are down right rude and speak down to you, like your a toddler (not a 16-18 yo)
The food is expensive.
I am there 3 days a week, and could probably be there 2 days with all the lessons we don't have! - waste of a day for me.
The teachers loose your work and try to blame you for loosing it, when another teacher (who left last year) took it with her,so basically we are going to fail the course because other teachers cant be bothered to contact her to retrieve the work.
They never put heating on so we are always cold in the winter.
The teachers don't give you any help with work so we end up failing because we don't get taught properly.
And we only found out late last year that the course that we are on doesn't lead to anything else, apart from the degree at this place, so I am now restricted to what I can do after the course.
I'd advise anyone not to go because it is so rubbish with how the teachers treat you and overall are limited to what you can do afterwards. DON'T GO!

Very pleased. Our son spent two years boarding there and completed a Level 3 BTec. We saw enormous change in that time, he became more responsible and grown up. Met a wide wide variety of great people, many of whom he will remain friends with for a long time. Thanks to the Rugby set up he improved his playing ability greatly, having been Yorkshire U16 's representative standard when he joined.

A fantastic place to get a degree! As a Higher Education student my experience at Bishop Burton has been outstanding. The lecturers go above and beyond to ensure that you receive the best academic and personal experience possible while in classes. The pastoral care is also exceptional and the staff make the most of the limited resources allocated to them. As a student with alternative lifestyle choices I feel as though my beliefs have been treated with nothing but the up most respect and even the catering staff have made special arrangements to make sure my alternative nutritional needs are met.

I went for an open day and I found that they only do btec courses. However the grounds are absolutely gorgeous, they have over 100 species of animals that are all kept clean and tidy. The staff where very friendly and answered any questions we had an were unbiased when talking about the options.

Good

Terrible the staff are rude and condescending the teach is horrendous and they only care about your money and not you development and welfare. Attending this place is my biggest regret and would advise anyone thinking of coming here to avoid this place or think hard about it and I would try hard to go to a more respectable university.

They're very unreasonable as I left in my 3rd year after 1 lecture and they demanded I pay for the full year now and not when I get a job earning a reasonable wage, as any other higher education institution do and they would only ask for the 1st installment. The facilities are average and you never use them, the food is well overpriced and it was just waste of my personal money and time.
