Course
Very disappointing, when you seek advise they just tell you to read. Now i love reading and i love learning, but sometimes you need a second opinion or to double check. I feel the lack of help is a huge flaw in the university.

Truthful answer they did not help me whatsoever. Simply said that they couldn't offer guidance. Luckily i am not afraid of working and truck drive away from my degree.

Course
The academic experience has been very good with subjects within primary education being broken down into different modules and having focused teaching for each subject. It is quite an academic course compared to other universities with assessment largely based on written assignments and occasional presentations and resources. The teaching quality is very good and there is a wide support network to help every student.

Accommodation
I renewed my house contract in December. However in my first year we started looking as early as end of November. It was quite a stressful situation as you all have to come together to view houses and work out living costs and arrangements but everyone gets housed and no one is just left.
