Hackney Community College

Personally my experience with this college is not great, I’m totally not impressed… NEVER again will i study here… I find that their very Un-​organised and have poor communication skills but Hey every department is different so please don’t let my options deter you.
Also the layout of this college is not great!
I shall be returning back to South London education.

The courses are good and they’re reasonably priced, but if you value your sanity make sure you manage to enrol by telephone — you can usually do this for months before the start of a course, with a cut off about a month before actual enrolment starts.
That’s very painless but if you end up there during the actual enrolment week, when they mix up all of the fulltime and parttime students — well, I admire anyone who manages to stay the distance and perseveres.
The facilities are relatively new, and there’s a canteen serving standard fare which is open late — useful if you are doing evening courses. I studied corsetry here — the tutor is brilliant — and it’s much cheaper than comparable courses in London.

Great college, great campus. One of the best in London, in my opinion. The students do well in exams and the sports teams win cups in competitions. It’s a further eductation college, so mixture of sixth formers and adult students as well as business training. Great community, friendly, good support. check it out.

I did a part time course here once which was every Tuesday evening for 6 weeks.
The course begun with an introduction to the building and with us filling out a questioner as to the reasons we did the course and what we hoped to gain etc.
I felt the course was really slow moving and unorganized and as soon as I felt we were getting places someone in the class would slow us down.
I guess it’s hard to learn a huge amount in such a short space of time and when you are going at others peoples speed.

I have never been a fan of the gym as I always feel uncomfortable with all the body beautiful and muscle builders parading around! However Space is a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere where people are there for themselves.
Space at Hackney College is a brilliant sports hall with two indoor courts for sports such as basketball and badminton, two separate studios for aerobics and yoga and a gym with all the necessary equipment to get a good work out!
The Legs, Bums and Tums class on Monday evenings at 6:30pm is a must! You feel so good for it — even if you can barely run up the stairs the next day! Des makes you work hard but as he is a brilliant actor the class is always fun!
Space has recently put in a new sauna downstairs which is always a good incentive to go to the gym :)
Compared to all the corporate gyms, Space is much cheaper and you get to know people and the gym staff who are extra lovely and willing to help set up an exercise plan, show you new stretches or just leave you to it!

Dazzlingly vast new building, but pretty pointless seeing as you cannot smoke in the interior but open air courtyards. Students gather outside the main entrance to smoke. What it does offer is a huge range of courses, a place on one of which must be fought for on Enrolment Day after reams of bureaucratic tape have tied you in knots and tutors have sent you from one desk to another with sarky comments and you’re just desperate for a cigarette but the courses on offer are good and the canteen does a good breakfast.
