They said it will serve as a pathway for me to have a great future in UK, meaning to acquire a good job there and eventually be granted with a working visa or even permanent status.
U better check the total tuition of the college, which you would be paying. And check if the work placement will be provided to you because other colleges provides work placement but not all. Unless you have relative/s or close friend/s in the UK, you cannot get a work placement in a month or two. Its is required that you secure National Insurance before employer will even consider you for your work placement.

P200,000 which includes tuition fee deposit plus at least 1 month accommodation and the consultancy fee is the average expenses for Uk student visa.
