5 Steps to Stay Safe
Face Coverings
Staff, students, visitors, contractors, and members of the public, unless exempt, are required to have face coverings readily available and wear them across all University and college buildings. Ensure you are familiar with the full policy.
Face coverings are not a substitute for social distancing at 2m, which remains a key feature of the protective hygiene and safety measures.

The full list of symptoms can be accessed on the NHS page Check if you or your child has coronavirus symptoms.
