Staff and student safety is of the utmost importance to us.  Below are a list of the measures put in place

All students must sanitise their hands on entry to the building.  There are hand sanitisers located throughout the building.

Class times and breaks are staggered to ensure that there is no cross over with students or staff from other classes

Classes and staff are assigned their own toilets to ensure that there is no cross over

Classrooms are cleaned and sanitised at the end of each day. Self-service cleaning stations are positioned in every class to allow students and staff to clean surfaces and touch points, as they feel is necessary

Teachers are assigned to one class group only so as to reduce the risk of contamination.

Where possible doors and windows are left open to maximise ventilation throughout the building and to reduce the need to touch door handles.

For anyone wishing to speak to the office, we ask students to email in advance to arrange an appointment.  There is also a screen between the student and the reception staff

All students must fill in a student health questionnaire before arrival and every Monday morning thereafter during their studies.  You can find the health questionnaire here

Students can choose to stay in host family or residential accommodation.  All accommodation adheres to the relevant guidelines.
