Student Life in Newcastle
Newcastle is famous for its friendliness - we were voted the best student city in the country for good reason! Our open and welcoming campus is a short walk from Newcastle Central Station, meaning you're never far from a spot of retail therapy, a tasty new restaurant or some of our award-winning culture.
Together We Changed
We introduced Together We Changed in January 2021. In this initiative, our curriculum areas asked learners for feedback on their student experience and used this to make changes.
Your feedback whilst you study is important to us and we are committed to listening to you and improving our provision based upon what we are told by the student body.
