Nottingham College offers a comprehensive range of further and higher education courses and training opportunities for business and industry.
The College is dedicated to promoting values which help to develop a strong sense of community and social and moral responsibility by:
Everyone has a role in influencing decision making, at national, local and community level. At Nottingham College this could include students exercising their democratic influence through forums, student council, or feedback mechanisms. Students have influence for example on which charities to support, or on developing procedures to improve their experience whilst at College.
This relates to an understanding of the importance of having laws and the consequence of breaking them, accepting that no one is above the law. It is about individuals having an understanding of their rights and responsibilities, as students, employees, consumers, service users and citizens in society. At Nottingham College this could include encouraging students to accept responsibility for their behaviour; enabling them to distinguish right from wrong and to respect the civil and criminal law of the country.
This relates to rights and responsibilities as citizens; the right to act, believe and express oneself in a manner of one’s own choosing. This requires an understanding of the balance between freedom of speech and expression and the potential negative impact on others. At College, this could include enabling students to understand the impact of their own behaviour on others and encouraging students to become responsible individuals who actively participate in their own development.

Thank you once again for doing your part to keep Edarabia the most trusted education source.
I was within NCN for OND and HNC Civil Engineering. You must remember NCN is a business and NOT a learning institution. A good tutor recognised my numerical dislexia however the college refused to follow this up owed to the costs or help with any suspport. I now run my own business with support from the Princes Trust in the form of business mentor Melvin Lusty. New College Nottingham is truely a terrible college for further education. It is solely interested in money and not education. I would never contemplate sending any employees to New College Nottingham nor would I encourage any parents to send their children here. Bullying is rampant problem and surprisingly this comes from the tutors and administration. New College Nottingham will educate you to pass however you will leave with little or no understanding of your stubject choice. You will need to essentially provide your own education in order to supliment the failings of NCN.

Worst college ever!!! I have completed barbering course this year and I would never go back to this college again. It’s so disorganised and unsupportive. Tutor is very unprofessional and was only interested in chatting to girls and messing around! I haven’t learnt anything! I went to Sid Suttong academy straight after college and in two days learnt more than in the whole year at the college! Barber course at the college is a waste of time and money!!! I can’t believe this is actually an officially authorised place! It should be closed down!!

I have studied at this college twice now, once before they merged and were still NCN and once after when they became Nottingham College. I studied a forensic science course the first time and ended up dropping out as the teaching standard was terrible. I was learning nothing, and when I asked for help they didn’t give it. I’ve now recently completed an Access to Nursing course with them. The teaching standards were slightly better, however the course was extremely unorganised and you don’t receive the proper help needed to get higher grades. They take FOREVER to mark work, leaving you behind schedule of where you should be. I am due to start university in September and to do so I need full proof of my grades along with a portfolio folder I handed to the teachers at the end of June. I cannot enrol on my uni course without these, I emailed to see when I’d get my results. 3rd September they said!! Unacceptable to say I’m supposed to start shortly after.
Do not study here it’s awful and you won’t achieve the best you can.

DO NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT APPLYING TO GO TO THIS COLLEGE!!!! Since the merge the lack of drive from the college has been appalling learning support is non existent teachers are rude and skip lessons without notifying anyone my work got lost repeatedly and I was made to re do it even though it was my tutors mistake for misplacing it my class was constantly being put down and falling behind due to overdue deadlines which the tutors weren’t teaching the criteria properly and making us fall behind tutors treated the class unequally and had no regard for the welfare of the students only the outcome of the college I was also made to do functional skills even though on my assessment I was at a GCSE level a year wasted learnt nothing and it’s been lowest I felt personally from an educational year DO NOT MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE AS ME!!! College deserves shutting down especially the Maid Marian Way campus

Do not recommend this college. Was studying Health and Social Care Level 2 work based. Teachers lost our assignments over and over again, was told to re do them or we wouldn’t pass the course. Hardly any lessons, just told to look at the book and do the assignment. Also lack of support. Will not be coming back to do anything else, will be transferring somewhere else...

My son is a student here, the lack of tutor stability doesn't apply here, supply tutors all the time.
There is so many things that need sorting at this college.
Some tutors do/ dont have the passion for the job and that shows.
It's sad my son has wasted a year here, I have told him to put in a formal complaint has the failings can't go on and fail more students it's there future of our children at stake.

Absolutely dreadful college. They have no regard for student welfare, they disengage students from education. They should attempt to work with students and not just be interested there outcomes!!!
