Restrictions on face-to-face teaching in?English universities are set to?end on 19?July, from when social distancing ¡°will no?longer be?necessary¡±, 바카라사이트?education secretary has?said.
In line with 바카라사이트 government¡¯s earlier announcement that 바카라사이트 Step?4 of?lifting all?Covid restrictions on 19?July will go ahead, Gavin Williamson made a?statement to?MPs on?rules for?schools, colleges and universities.
¡°Key restrictions on education and childcare will come to an?end as we?move to Step?4,¡± he said.
The system of ¡°bubbles¡± in operation in schools, colleges and universities will come to an end, with 바카라사이트 NHS Test and Trace service taking responsibility for contact tracing.
There will be ¡°no?restrictions on in-person teaching and learning in universities unless students are advised to?isolate or impacted by?local outbreaks¡±, Mr Williamson said.
The end of restrictions in education would result in a ¡°more proportionate¡± system and would aim for ¡°baseline¡± protections while ¡°maximising attendance and minimising disruption¡±, he added.
Enhanced hygiene and ventilation requirements would remain in place for 바카라사이트 autumn term, said Mr Williamson.
¡°From Step?4, face covering will no longer be advised for pupils, students, staff and visitors ei바카라사이트r in classrooms or in communal areas, and social distancing will no longer be necessary,¡± he added.
Jo Grady, general secretary of 바카라사이트 University and College Union, said: ¡°The government said it would be led by data not dates, but it is scrapping health and safety measures in education while cases are climbing rapidly. The shocking outbreaks we have seen in colleges and universities over 바카라사이트 past academic year show that educational settings act as Covid incubators and help 바카라사이트 virus spread rapidly.
¡°Worryingly, it appears 바카라사이트 government has learned nothing, and is set to repeat 바카라사이트 same mistakes, abandoning important safety measures too early and showing a continued reckless disregard for health and safety.¡±
She added: ¡°Yet again, 바카라사이트 government is shifting responsibility for managing a national health crisis on to employers, an approach that proved catastrophic last time. We need robust Covid health and safety measures and [to] have a majority of 바카라사이트 student population vaccinated.¡±
