Good small group course - would recommend to any A level students who haven't managed to attend their own schools fieldwork (June 2023 - Secondary School)
Quality of teaching from FSC was patchy. Many of the staff it was their second day. The instructions given to students were not clear, and the task was not gone over in the class rooms so students had no idea about how the methods linked to the research question or what the research question was.
One group couldnt go to one of the sites as their member of staff refused to walk down the hill.
Overall the experience of the FSC was poor contributing to us completing the fieldwork in house in future. In house will also be more cost effective.
