But don’t just take our word for it – see what some of our students have had to say about their time at college:
Benji Bradshaw – Adult Nursing T Level
"My lecturers are fantastic, they teach and care for you and I’ve learned a lot from them. We’re treated like adults, and because they’re nurses they truly understand how to help you achieve and bring their experiences into the classroom. Everyone on the course is part of a really close group which makes working together much easier and enjoyable."
Jess Hands – Motor Vehicle Level 2
"We receive great support from both our lecturers and learning mentors. They are people you can look up to and rely on in any situation; pushing you to achieve more than you ever thought and create an amazing learning atmosphere."
Gemma Parry – Catering and Hospitality Level 3
"I chose GC as I wanted to learn new skills from lecturers who have lots of experience in industry. I’ve developed great knife skills and become more familiar with different types of meat and fish; training in modern, well-equipped kitchens. I’ve built my confidence and made new friends, and learnt how to deal with pressure and time constraints in the kitchen during work experience at a local pub."
Annalise Barley - Art and Design Level 3
"GC is a friendly place and has an amazing atmosphere. I love art and I liked the wide range of topics we would cover across the year, and we gained knowledge about different types of art. GC helped me with applying for higher education, to improve on what I know already and I've been accepted into London Metropolitan University to study BA Fashion."
Thom Williams - Forensic Computing and Cyber Security Level 3
"The atmosphere on my course is friendly because everyone has a common interest and I’m there with likeminded people. It’s nice to have lecturers who have real-world experiences in computing; they make the lessons more enjoyable by bringing modern day technology into the classroom and we get to use it all first-hand."
