Banbury and Bicester College

Lack of any input from tutors, The course itself was falsified upon the second year.. My course was advertised as art, however most of the three year process has been typing day after day and copying text from Wikipedia without a blind eye noticing.. I have been told multiple times to NOT draw in class when it is my main medium for work and I found it odd that they'd even question it. Furthermore.. The course has taught me nothing that I didn't already know and has not been beneficial to me in the carrier path I want to head towards.. Plus, when I've even asked for help, most of the comments back are to use Google or to use books.. There have been no art tips, techniques or nothing that I was shown during open day present during these past three years, the closet thing to anything I was shown is mono-printing, but after a while that gets extremely old.. I am sick and tired of typing day after day about artists when I could be painting or sculpting.. I was even judged for bringing in my sculpting equipment because figure making to the 'professionals' was not artistic.. And my final complaint is the lack of enjoyment in this course that I get from working at home.. Every day has been an anxious, depressing struggle for me to even attend, Apparently mental health is not classified as a valid reason to 'skip' college.. In no way has this course been 'Art and Design', More like 'Boring and Disappointing.'

Don't expect to be able to park, and communication from staff isn't a certainty. Similarly, safeguarding for students isn't guaranteed without direct outside interference.
