Childcare
If childcare might be a barrier to taking a degree, you'll be pleased to learn that we have early years nurseries at both Cannock and Tamworth campuses. You can check on opening times, prices and availability by phoning 0300 456 2424.
Accommodation
South Staffordshire College does not have a Halls of Residence, so unfortunately there is no on-campus living accommodation available. However, please contact us if we can support you with accommodation advice.
Academic support
Above all, our tutors’ aim with every student is to help him or her succeed. With this in mind, South Staffordshire College has a strong ethos in providing alongside outstanding teaching, strong academic support.
All students are given access to additional support. This can range from tuition sessions, one to one module assistance to help ensure all areas are fully understood, to support and training in revision techniques, presentation skills and coursework production to ensure the coursework is to the students’ highest standard.
Sometimes students may require extra support with reading, writing, maths, mobility or even motivation... we will do our very best to help you any way we can. This is tailored support and is beneficial for all our learners from school leavers to those returning to education.
If you enrol on a course that is validated by Staffordshire University, you will receive a student ID card which gives you access to the University’s facilities, including online resources such as e-journals, e-books and databases. You will also get your own email account, and access to MyPortal, your own personalised web page.
You will also have access to Staffordshire University’s campuses at Stoke and Stafford including the Students’ Union and all the great social life on offer there. Student Guidance Officers are available to talk to you. Based at Stoke and Stafford they can be contacted by telephone and email. For further information go to www.staffs.ac.uk
