All full-time students have a personal tutor. This may be your course tutor or a member of the course team. The college greatly values you as a student and you will meet your tutor regularly to discuss your progress and record your achievements.

Your tutor will help you through any difficulties, offer advice on study skills or work experience and prepare you for the next stage of your career.

If you are a part-time student on one course, the course tutor will be your personal tutor. If you are attending a number of courses, one of your tutors will be nominated. They will spend time with you early in your course to discuss your learning programme.

The tutorial programme is a menu of activities to be completed, but you can choose with your tutor how to cover each topic. Well at College is one option (described below), another is a guest speaker or Mike Wadley from the Student Enrichment Centre. Your own tutor may work with you in a workshop or you may have a 1:1 tutorial to check how you are doing with your work and action plan targets to see what has to be done next. Activities also take place in the Avenue or Student Enrichment Centre on a regular basis. 

Well at College
The ‘Well at College’ programme is our way of working with you to make sure you can manage situations that you are likely to experience. This include issues like managing money and getting the right information at the right time. Some of the tutorials are accessed by computer and other parts by discussions or paperwork. Other tutorials take place in the Avenue. You also get some choice about which topics to select.

We always welcome your feedback.
