City of Westminster College, Paddington Green Campus - London

The organisation in this college is definitely something. The class schedule is useless and doesn’t line up to where the students are actually supposed to be. From the very start they had little to no care to fix the scheduling issues. And they always announce everything last minute which is frustrating and stressful.

They have made little to no effort to inform the students about any of the rules and procedures, expecting them to know on the very first week. I met a person who was kicked out of the course in the beginning of the term due to them being absent for a bit because of health reasons. And without any warning they just kicked them out. And the way the person found out they were kicked out was because their ID wasn’t letting them into the college. No email, no letter whatsoever.

And not even half way through the course, teachers were leaving. They assigned a cover teacher who had no idea what the course is about and taught us absolutely nothing about the subject. And on top of that the teachers are rude and snarky. They blame you for just about everything that they cannot provide. They blame the students for not coming in when there were no teachers to begin with. And blame students for not doing enough when they don’t even provide and help to begin with.

And the college is surrounded by crime everyday. The staff cannot control the students at all. You will feel very isolated in this college if you are serious about your studies. This college is a waste of time if you want to actually learn.

I’m not hating but only telling what I have experience in this college. If you think of enrolling to this college, please be aware of what you’re going into.

If you are serious about your future and you want a good college, please don't come here. Teachers are always late, don't show up, don't teach properly and will belittle you if you don't know what your doing in lesson. And students that are extremely bad don't get kicked out, they go unpunished. Also they care about their reputation more than students.

Terrible place. Management are useless, students don't know when exams or mocks are, some staff seem inept and I don't know how they teach. Student absenteeism is a huge problem. If you want a good A level college, don't go here.

I studied here for a year and thank God im not going to be here no more this college is full of unrealistic teachers, specially the head of the school, All teachers departments love to go for months and your children will have the supplement of a supplement in this college, don’t take them here!!

Definition of a youth club no help whatsoever your given an assignment and with no clear instructions and you supposed to just get on it alone no support. Studied art & design and had two teachers leave in the span of three months and had to deal with a supply who doesn’t have any professionalism in art or design. If you want to resit your GCSES just forget but the answers are just given to you or written on the bored. They don’t care about you only their ratings. Go here if you will.

Do not try to silence me. As you have others CWC , I refuse to be silenced.

Staff at CWC are absolutely treacherous. They turn up whenever they want. My teacher couldn't even speak English and had zero experience in the subject in which we were being taught.

Open drug dealing and gang activity on campus. Total lack of control from security and some staff members clearly involved in or at the least turning a blind eye to open criminal activities within and around the building.

Total code red on the danger scale.

100% inappropriate as a place of education.

CWC is actually more dangerous than just hanging around on the street in what is an extremely high crime area. This is because CWC acts as a magnet for young gang members to congregate.

But ultimately, it's staff who are the final nail in the coffin for CWC. It's the absolute bottom of the barrel staff members who ultimately make CWC the absolute cesspit of humanity. Not only is this they worst and most shocking place of education I have ever attended, but it is also they worst building I have had the misfortune to enter in my entire life and I lived in a block controlled by the SN1 gang in Peckham for over a decade. Although that was hell, compared to CWC they had more control over their territory, where more punctual, articulate, at least they could actually speak English, kind of, to a higher standard than deemed acceptable at CWC at least, which appears to be zero, were more reasonable (lol imagine), and dished out more punishments to those actually in the wrong more often than i ever witnessed at CWC.

If you take education seriously don’t come to this college because the teaching department isn’t, it has a very good presentation and looks very clean from the outside but ask the students how bad it is ….
