Monitoring infection rates Our Infection Response Group (IRG) continues to monitor infection rates amongst the student and staff community. Active case data is reviewed on a daily basis, enabling swift and proactive responses to any confirmed cases of infection. We are pleased to note low rates of infection across our staff and student groups throughout the 2020/21 academic year. The university's location in the London Borough of Newham means we regularly review local infection rate and testing data, particularly when making decisions regarding the return of larger numbers of people to campus. This local data is reviewed weekly by the IRG, with a member of the Newham Public Health team attending for discussion and proactive dialogue. View our active case statistics .
