Pros

Getting to work with (Some) genuine hard working people who are committed to the students experience and passing on their skills in a way that inspires.

Cons

This is an organisation that puts money before student safety and wellbeing, their pastoral care is poor. The internal quality cycle is a joke as you are asked on the quiet what day and time you want the inspection done. There is a bullying culture which disseminates from CEO level downwards and actively encouraged through management. Staff are disrespected,undervalued and unappreciated. The safety of some of the staff and students working areas are questionable to say the least. Some staff are unqualified and inappropriate in front of students. The level of support offered by management is atrocious and are never contactable, unreliable,unaccountable and inconsistent. All in all the management is weak at best.

Pros

The pros were minimal. The people I worked with day to day at Newtown campus were lovely people and the students I taught were tough but I made a real difference to them.

Cons

The management were appalling. They were incredibly unsupportive and senior management facing and didn’t care at all about their staff. I was bullied, expected to cover multiple classes at once and when I eventually left they underpaid me by £2000. Their pay rates are ridiculous and they make savings on you by taking a 15 minute ‘break’ away from you in every 3 hour block. To say NPTC are corrupt and taking advantage of all their staff is an understatement. If you are looking to work for them, do not bother. They are by far the worst employers I have ever worked for.
