COVID update 17/06/2021

* National daily confirmed coronavirus cases are on the increase, and we are asking everyone to once again wear face coverings from immediate effect until the end of term*

The majority of new cases are the more transmittable delta variant, and by reintroducing face coverings we hope to help prevent transmission and keep our colleagues and students as safe as possible.

NB: All employees, students and visitors are required to wear face coverings (unless exempt) when outside on site, in communal areas and in classrooms, and keep a safe 2m distance from others and remain within site and class bubbles.

We ask you do all you can to protect yourself, family and friends whilst outside of college to help lift restrictions as soon as possible, and share the following guidance:
