Futureworks is a leading media training facility in Manchester which offers courses in everything…read morefrom game design to sound recording. Futureworks offers short, fast-track and diploma courses as well as degree equivalent qualifications in a range of disciplines and technologies. The rates aren't the cheapest in town (you can get short courses in some of the same software and technologies cheaper at The Manchester College) but I think they're fairly priced and are worth the money. I've been here for one of their short editing courses and thought it was great. The staff were really attentive and didn't just shout out instructions as they do in some other training centres. They mixed lecturing and demonstration with hands-on practice and one to one discussions, which I found useful as I felt I was falling behind but was a bit embarrassed to ask for help. The centre itself is easy to find (just at the end of Oxford Road before the Central Library) and has state of the art facilties and equipment. The whole place is very shiney and modern and is so covered in buttons and gadgets it feels a bit like you're in the future...perhaps thats why the call it Futureworks....

Well, what can I say? After ten years out of the education game I decided to tip my toe back in the…read morelearning pool. After some well thought out deliberation I opted for a Masters degree in some marketing what-ever! So, after trawling through countless Postgraduate prospectus's I applied for a number of courses, off the top of my head Man Uni, Man Met, Huddersfield and so on. Bully for me I received all unconditional offers!! I was indeed on cloud number nine, the cock of the walk! So, Huddersfield University School of Marketing here I come?? WRONG! The idea of spending two years in part time study in the armpit of Yorkshire was about as appealing as three kicks to the groin. What did I want???? What was my problem?! I knew I wanted to learn a new skill, to develop my knowledge as it were! Then it hit me! Travel, I wanted to travel! I wanted out of the trap that was my life in a city that I was growing ever sick of! I was going to leave the land of the northern monkey and head west!! SOUTH AMERICA BABY!!!!! But I needed money!! I needed to work! Shit! What could I do?? Then it hit me like the zingy tingle of the sweet chili dressing on a scallies foot long subway! I would teach English!!!! Manchester Academy of English teacher training!!! I was accepted onto a part time CELTA course and here I find myself now!! Its been seven long weeks but I am loving every minute of it! The teaching contents and pace of study is achievable and realistic. The workload is heavy going, but the course outline and the expectations that are set from day one are clear and precise. Being one of them dyslexics I have had to work twice as hard, nothing new there then; but it has truly been a breath of fresh air! Okay, stay tuned for further progress and updates on my adventures!!! :-)

Well I found out tonight that once a month the Mancat catering students run an onsite bar &…read morerestaurant and I have to say I was blown away by the standard of food & the quality of the staff. Each month is a particular theme - tonight was Grill night. Starter choice was soup, shish kebab or Caesar salad. I had the shish kebab and it was Devine. Succulent, definitely home made and served on a small pitta with mint dressing - fancy restaurant style not kebab house style, For main I had rib-eye with peppercorn sauce, fat chips and watercress - all as good as a lot of the steaks I've eaten in some decent steak houses (trust me - steak is defo a speciality of mine). To finish I had chocolate roulade, chocolate sorbet, vanilla ice cream and cherry jus. This was equally as good as everything else. The icing on the cake, as well as the wonderful service, was the price - £14.95!!! What a wonderful find of a place to eat in North Manchester - Moston!!! Next month is a 6 course tasting menu & I can 100% say I will be going. Great food, great staff, great views out of the fourth floor of the Campus building and all for a ridiculously cheap price! Massive well done to the students and staff that make this possible - you're doing an amazing job.

Firstly, it's spelt 'Aquinas'. Secondly, I've been attending for six months now, and I've been…read moreenjoying all of it. The staff are all friendly, the lessons are great and very well taught, add to that a plethora of extra curricular stuff like sports, College Magazine, Creative Writing, and even an Anime club. The only real big problem with the college is 'Ethics', which is both annoying and pointless, and whats worse is it's an enforced part of the curriculum. Aquinas College, in 2009 surpassed all other local colleges, including the non-state schools, and came out #1 in Stockport. It has close links with several European colleges and regularly partakes in exchanges, currently hosting the Romanian exchange (as of 5/2/09). Several trips are also part of the curriculum, including trips to Rome for Classics, Poland for History and India, for the colleges India project, of which a massive fundraising scheme has been held each year for the past 10 years. Opportunities are also present with talks from several institutions including Journalism talks from the BBC. The latest Ofsted report described Aquinas as 'an outstanding college'. The adjective 'outstanding' was found to occur 26 times in the finished report. The report praised the friendly and positive environment for students to learn in. It was also touched upon that the use of IT was well applied to keep students engaged. Furthermore: Teachers and support staff work very well together to provide outstanding guidance and support. The college's response to education and social inclusion is outstanding. A broad curriculum meets the needs of students very well. Alternative pathways are available for students not yet ready to study at advanced level and the college works hard to engage students who may otherwise not participate in further education. Extensive enrichment activities and voluntary work enhances students'skills. The Every Child Matters themes are embedded in all aspects of college life. A list of Key strengths was drawn up: - Inclusive college - High success rates on many courses - Very good value added on A2 - Excellent individual support for students - Productive partnerships - Outstanding governance - Outstanding range of courses and enrichment activities. Ofsted also criticized the present building as being too cramped for the current demand for students. In response, a new college is currently being constructed, with the old one being demolished upon completion.
