Riseholme College - Lincoln

lewis appleby

the college is unorganized a full of lies anything they promise you is false it costs a fortune if you want to eat food from the canteen and the teaching staff care more about reputation than teaching. if your doing poorly they berate you yet do nothing to help. avoid this college whenever possible. many of my mates wanna drop out and only stay cause they don't want to leave their mates behind. if you leave campus you get in trouble teaching is sub par at best and resources are minimal. teachers are gender discriminate and many of the male lecturers and a lot of the female lecturers will treat the girls way better then the boys. for a college that advertises on its sports facilities its got a terrible gym a sports hall you can find in any secondary school and some primary schools in England. the AstroTurf is almost always used by the football lads and rarely used for other students. the only sociable thing to do in college is smoke cigarettes and there a virtually no clubs. the buses are always overcrowded trips are minimal and the college laptops take 10 minutes to load. at times it feels more like a prison than a college. if you want to come here then good luck trying to keep you sanity. 2 years here and i wish id never come .

Only rating 1 as I can't give 0. This college wasted 2 years of my life for a course full of lies. (our lecturers admitted we were lied to when applying) no matter what you do it's not good enough. I had 1 lecturer that treated me with respect and she left first chance she had. 2 more lecturers later I failed anyway because they all taught us the wrong stuff. transport wise busses are always late. Food is insanely expensive and student services are only good to you if you're not complaining. They do nothing about bullying and absolutely nothing about mental health (except of course chuck you in a room with a "therapist" that would rather talk about her kids than your issues) and to top it off they sent me a after college survey to fill out where some questions require you to put in an answer but of course you can't choose anything negative so to move on you have to lie. (Abit like the college does) DO NOT GO HERE!!

Definitely wouldn't recommend this college to anyone in fact a Don't Come Here Sign should be placed outside of the building as the teaching is dreary and very drippy, weird staff and they don't know it, no one can take banter and is extremely woke, unplanned and unorganised assignments.

All I can say is Riseholme should be avoided like the plague.

I am really grateful for what I learned and you do learn and am so grateful for what I got from working so hard. Great qualification to have (animal management) as it gives insights into different subject areas. Sadly, the let down is the organisation of this college, needs to be worked on.

Awful college. Absolute waste of time. Don't come here expecting to learn any practical skills that are relevant in the industry that you want to be in. Eating here can cost you £10 a day if you're not careful. They only care about their image and any stain on it is swept under the rug. Everything seems to be about money rather than education.

Promised a decent education. Instead I experienced unplanned assignments, The college as a whole is unorganized (e.g Never get given plans until a few days before if we are lucky. Most likely due to not even being planned in the first place. We aren't notified when teachers are off. And similar issues. The technological side of the college is awful with the internet constantly failing and nearly non-existent within accommodation. The staff are untrained in many uses with computers however on one of the small upsides are well educated and experienced in the subjects they teach. That's if you get past the uptight attitude *cough cou-hayley cough sims* (Some teachers are great however)
While the canteen food is decent the prices are out of order for the low quality food that is provided. Half of the college is locked off to only HE students so if you aren't doing a higher education course unlike myself i wouldn't bother attending.
If you want a decent agricultural experience i would recommend Bishops, Not this sorry counterpart

Not to be snobby or enything but all the teacher's will know who I am and I might get in trouble I don't know but some of the teacher's were nice about this situation

So I am currently attending this collige and I wish I dident since thear is heart desese in my family I started to have heart palpitations and feeling really sick my freind was helping me stand and walked me to the office when I told her my heart was beating extreamly fast and I was pail and sight was blury I told her this and she told me to sit down for a while so I did with a drink of water

My angziaty started to kick in and I felt it getting worse my whole body was now all fuzzy and I thaught no this is stupid it's not helping so by freind helped me up the stairs to see my corse maniger I told her how I was feeling and she looked worried and sed she was going to get the first aider. It was the lady at the office that told me to sit down she looked like she had better things to do and fed up. I want on to tell her that heart desese runs in the family and all of my ancestors have died from it. She dident look botherd but calld my mum. She asked if my mum wanted to come see if I was ok my mum told her to call a first responder the first aider asked if my mum wanted to come first and then see if I needed a first responder (I live an hour away from the collige) mum sed no just call the first responder. After the phonecall my freind helped me downstairs and she calld the first responder to come she dident seem to botherd and told him my symptoms and he asked me a few questions.

As my vishon started to decrees I felt like I was starting to loose consciousness bidding off in my cheat creating heavily my whole body was fuzzy and all i could feel was the each on my cheast my hearing sounded muffled like I was under water and 2 teachers tried to keep talking to me so I wouldent fall asleep since I got extreamly tierd and faint
They helped me to the loo a few times but held the door shut since they dident want me locking it.

When the first responder came he sed I was haveing heart palpitations and had a panick attack to because of them.

I can't remember mutch of what he did but I was wierd up to a misheane and he pricked my finger and stuff but what really gets me is
If that was somone else with a bigger problem and dident have the energy to go see the corse maniger what could of happend to them

Some of the staff really helped me like my corse maniger and the 2 teachers but the first aider she dident even try to calm me down
The only thing she did was call the first responder

I was really tierd when I got home and want strate to sleep but comon is it not common dance when somones heart is beading extreamly fast they r getting Paul loising consciousness and so on to at least call a first responder not thear mum? Really? the food is really expensive to a bottom of water and a pre made sandwige you ushally get from Tesco home brand or something uses my £5 food money it's really bad

Basic gym but I can relate only for badminton courts which are top quality. However, the building is brand new.
