Fashion Retail Academy
I'm currently in year 12 doing 2 a levels and a level 3 diploma (Sociology, Politics and Criminology). After year 13 I might want to do a Level 4 in Visual Merchandising at the FRA. What is the course like and how are the people? Also will I find it difficult transitioning from A Levels to college?

I studied at this place for 4 years in total and it is not what it seems compared to how they present it online , they put more money and attention on their social media to promote the college and hardly any on the students . They never gave me any support with my disabilities and would constantly leave me in dark when I would ask for help with these disabilities as they effected my struggles with learning etc . The teachers are not good at engaging with students and will just sit and read off the board if I could give them a 0/10 based on staff alone I would . They are rude and treated me and my friends like dirt on the bottom of their shoes . It is just full of girls now who go because it is on “TikTok” and for the famous side of it so they can just post on social media and hardly any students there actually even want to go into the industry they just go so they can post about it online . The work experience is a 0/10 they promised work experience and a week before said there wasn’t enough brands wanting to work with them , if you think you will get a job or work offers after here you are definitely wrong . It’s a rip off , no respect there and the well-being service honestly makes me laugh they do not care about mental health in the slightest it’s a joke had a meeting with them only for them to say my ED wasn’t bad enough and they don’t have any space to give me the so called therapy they offer which is by the way not even in a private space but next to 5 over staff members that are working on their laptops , oh and they keep the door open where students walk past and hear everything . They live off of the fact Molly mae went here and they think hiring a DJ makes this place sooo amazing to go too . This isn’t to be rude it’s to warn you do not go here unless you want to be surrounded in that atmosphere .
