PGCE Primary (5-11)

University rating (5)

I am an international student and it's my first time in the UK. BGU has made my stay worthwhile from quick response to the environment itself, it facilities and amenities etc.it is small campus but well organized and has all that is needed. The location is also strategic, as it is close to major places ,the student hostel is also comfortable.

Early Childhood Studies BA (Hons)

University rating (5)

A bad aspect would be bad it’s up a hill and therefore it’s quite difficult to get to the location however it’s near a town where we can go shopping and grab a coffee before lesson or hang with friends after. A good thing about uni is that I’ve managed to make great friends even though I commute, as well as improve my confidence in speaking and writing. Also I have improved my confidence in talking in lesson as well.

PGCE Secondary (History)

University rating (3)

Student support from the actual officers is amazing, they’re all fantastic welcoming people. However the actual tangible support is fairly poor and the placement office is absolutely dreadful when it comes to recognising and acknowledging student wellbeing and finances.

University rating (5)

I have never felt more supported both in terms of academics and in terms of my mental health needs. The university campus is so small and friendly and it’s so easy to navigate, not to mention beautiful. It’s also such a beautiful abs accessible location. I couldn’t be prouder to be a student here. Fantastic university!

The chaplaincy is the most incredibly welcoming space. The staff at the uni all care about students individually. The environment is all so warm and friendly.

University rating (5)

BGU is an extremely friendly university which is set in a safe and green location. The support from the lecturers is amazing, they also go above and beyond to help you with anything you need. Lots of societies and free events which means you’ll have an easy time making friends here. I really recommend this university as a great place to both live and study.
