Following the government’s removal of Plan B restrictions the university has updated its Covid-Safe Arrangements and Covid-Safe Charter. We will continue to monitor the government guidance and keep our arrangements under review.
Please wear a face covering in our university buildings
Students, staff and visitors to our campuses are expected and strongly recommended to continue to wear face coverings in our buildings, unless you are exempt*.
Face coverings continue to be required on university buses
In line with TfL’s arrangements face coverings continue to be a requirement when using the university bus service and in university vehicles, unless you are exempt*.
* If you are exempt from wearing a face covering please display/wear an exemption badge or lanyard. You can download and wear the government's face covering exemption badge. If you can't download the badge, you can pick one up from any of our Student Centres.
It remains important to get tested regularly
Staff and students who are on campus should get a Covid-19 Lateral Flow Device (LFD) test twice a week with 3-4 days between tests. Where possible, you should test yourself using a home test kit before coming to campus. You can see details on our Covid-testing arrangements page.
It’s also important to continue to report Covid
If you test positive, experience the symptoms of Covid-19 or need to self-isolate for any reason, you must let the university know as soon as possible. This will allow us to take swift action to minimise the risk to others and follow the strict procedures in place.
You can do this using the online form on the Covid-Safe Arrangements page.
