Calderdale College

Im an autisic Level 2 creative media student resitting both English and maths. The sen department are amazing and realy kind especialy Sara Bistuctz, i started college without my autisim diagnosis and they were incredibly patient and gave me the support that they could whilst we waited. Now i have my diagnosis theres tonnes more support in place. Because i have many buses to take and if any skips i will be late the college are amazing and are changing my schedule so i can come in a bit later! Now onto the courses. I absolutely love creative media and i like that even when we're working independently that Ruth Martin my tutour often checks in on us. Ruth is a really great tutour too, she understands i struggle with sitting still and that i tend to focus better when im around less people so she lets me work in the study space thats right outside the classroom. My English tutors are also really patient too and sometimes have shared figet toys for the classroom. My maths tutors are also really nice! I have issues where i struggle to stay awake and all my tutors are incredibly patient and understanding. I 100% recommend this college to anyone! And thats without talking about the food!

Went to watch grandson play football. Large & free car park at time of visit. Pitches are accessed via main entrance. Small cafe, toilets. Facilities inside were being well used. Outside is a rugby pitch and all-weather football/hockey. Viewing area on a slope though, not great for disabled.

Could not fault the education and experiences I received at this college. I have made life-long friends and have received an education that has opened doors to university and beyond, thanks in due to a teacher who saw my potential and believed in me (thanks, Anne!). The college has some good genuine tutors and my experience here has been good overall. I only had one negative experience here with a tutor, but it's not significant enough to write about. Often it's the students who give the tutors a hard time and then blame the college for their own shortcomings.

Withdrew my daughters application four days before she was supposed to start her course, leaving her with nowhere else to go to learn her chosen career. Just another college looking for reputation and awards to make them look good, no interest in a childs future

Use their hair and beauty salon, it's great. All students supervised so nothing has gone amiss for me. Lovely atmosphere, fab prices. Hubby uses barbering service which is free, yes FREE. Highly recommend
