Once the national restrictions have ended, the government has asked students to return to their home time addresses – should they wish to do so – during a ‘student travel window’ between Thursday 3 and Wednesday 9 December.
This is because anyone who remains at university after 9 December and contracts coronavirus or is contacted by NHS Test and Trace will have to isolate for up to 14 days at their term-time address and would therefore be at risk of not being able to travel home in time for Christmas day.
From Wednesday 9 until Friday 18 December when term ends, all teaching at the University will be delivered online, wherever possible.
There are a number of elements which you need to bear in mind. Two of these – booking a test and notifying us of your intended departure date – will require you to plan ahead. We have set out the step-by-step method you are encouraged to follow below.
