Today we had a student test positive with a confirmed case of Covid 19 at our Eastbourne campus.
The student has been required to self-isolate and any potential students that who may have had prolonged contact with the individual have been informed and advised to study from home and self-Isolate.
Any news of a confirmed Covid-19 case can be concerning, and we are working closely with Public Health England to monitor the situation and take the required actions to further protect and reduce the opportunity of spreading COVID 19 to any others.
The campus will remain open so that students can attend lessons. We are continuing to encourage students and staff to follow our safety and hygiene procedures so that we can reduce the spread of the virus.
