University Level

We are pleased that the 2022 National Student Survey records an overall satisfaction rate of 93.33% from our Higher Education students – 17.04% above the national average for the UK as a whole!

Our students scored the college particularly highly for ‘academic support’ – 91% (17.23% above the national average) and ‘strong student community’ (26.78% above the national average).

In addition to saving on accommodation and livings costs our Higher Education fees are generally less expensive than most universities.

HNC is the equivalent of the first year of a degree and is valued by employers as a recognised professional development for their employees.  As this is a part-time course it is suited to students who are currently employed and want to gain a work related qualification or students who might wish to enhance their employment opportunities.

Weymouth College supports initiatives that seek to tackle prejudice and discrimination. It recognises the IHRA definition as supporting the College’s existing policies on Equality and Diversity, reinforcing the message that antisemitism will not be tolerated. When considering any allegation due regard will be given to the definition below.

In accordance with the recommendation of the Home Affairs Select Committee in 2016, the College acknowledges that:

• It is not antisemitic to criticise the Government of Israel, without additional evidence to suggest antisemitic intent.
• It is not antisemitic to hold the Israeli Government to the same standards as other liberal democracies, or to take a particular interest in the Israeli Government’s policies or actions, without additional evidence to suggest antisemitic intent.

The IHRA working definition of antisemitism is: “Antisemitism is a certain perception of Jews, which may be expressed as hatred toward Jews. Rhetorical and physical manifestations of antisemitism are directed toward Jewish or non-Jewish individuals and/or their property, toward Jewish community institutions and religious facilities.”
