The University remains open with a safety-first approach to ensure our campuses are ‘covid-secure’ for our staff, students, local community and visitors, in accordance with government guidance. Keep up to date The information here is to help our website visitors understand the University's latest activity in response to COVID-19. A comprehensive set of support material for staff and students is available via login on the University's intranet. All links to further information are given below. COVID-19 information, advice and support for different groups Enrolled students We’re proud of our students’ resilience at this difficult time. We’re here to help with clear advice and support on the student portal around self-isolation, COVID-19 symptoms, testing, study, and ultimately the safety and wellbeing of every student. New and returning students We are planning for a high-quality student experience, designed around in-person, face-to-face teaching and learning, supplemented with digital resources. Learn more about how subjects will be taught, face-to-face sessions, learning on demand and more. Those interested in study We very much hope we can welcome you to campus soon. We are hoping to run our upcoming open days as physical events on campus. In the meantime, you can experience Plymouth at your leisure virtually through Plymouth On Demand. Parents and supporters We know that parents and supporters of students may be worried about what life is like at university during a pandemic, but we want to reassure you that safety is our highest priority. University staff Our staff have access to information about our COVID-19 response – an archive of staff communications, advice about working from home or safely on site – and can learn about how to help our students, and much more, through the staff portal. Community An update for the community on the 2021 student return – how we are supporting your health, safety and wellbeing. Placement and apprenticeship employers We would like to reassure our employer partners that it is our priority to mitigate the impacts of the pandemic and associated disruption and together we support placement students and apprentices through these extraordinary and difficult times. How we’re keeping our campus safe We all share a collective responsibility to minimise risks to others and ourselves. We are all expected to behave sensibly and responsibly, being kind, patient and respectful to others on campus and the local community. We all need to act quickly and decisively if there is a need to self-isolate, symptoms are experienced, or if anyone tests positive for COVID-19. We should all maintain a flexible and adaptable approach as the situation continues to evolve.
