   Cornwall Counselling Institute - First they said that they had funding for Level 2 and they offered me to join the course. After one month, they send me an email "out-of-the-blue". My classmates were very nice but the class was not diverse. Tutor has been making "obstacles" for myself from the start not to join this course. At first, they blocked my pc from accessing lectures for 2 weeks when I was abroad to make myself miss 2 lectures. During lecture, my teacher would ALWAYS leave me last person to speak. As if she wanted to hide me even though I speak good English. Once she also sent me a homework back 4 times for correction. Avoid if you are a foreigner

   Excellent! Meal and service were both first class and the restaurant itself is very light clean and contemporary. We will be going again for sure!

   Dropped in quality considerably. Lecturers are underpaid leaving them understandably unwilling to deliver on the university's promises to its students. This leaves the entire experience bland and uninspired with very little going on anywhere on the campus. Services and resources are constantly reduced. Lectures are nothing more than a low quality power point presentation. They push political agendas and ideologies in a place of learning (LGBTQ+, Gender fluidity and racial paradigms) to which most of the adults there don't even agree with. This stuff is displayed throughout all over message boards in corridors. There are some good people there but they are let down by terrible administration and continuous poor choices. Most courses are left with very little financial support and the contrast is staggering. I.T. courses have ancient systems devoid of the required specifications to run the software the university expects you to run in an efficient manner. Yet there is an eSports bTec qualification where every system is a high-end water cooled Alienware setup and they have arcade emulation machines setup in the corner of the rooms. And hair and beauty is clearly pumped full of cash. Their resource management software solution called Moodle is a complete disaster in its own right that the internal team doesn't seem to have any understanding of and the lecturers hate it too. This has lecturers attempting to use alternatives without any solid agreement so students have to access various locations with multiple logins on a daily basis just to access their learning resources. All in all I would strongly advise that you disregard Cornwall College from your considerations.

   I had a lovely day doing Art with Lisa Stewart on the Camborne Art Group and at lunchtime had a delicious meal in the Canteen as always. Cooked by the students of course.

   The staff are the best part of the college, being friendly and helpful. The lesser amount of students leave a nice environment with lecturers who care. Budget cuts however have begun a downward slope as it's affecting the best part - the lecturers.
