Higher Education Prospectus - How City of Bristol College looks in a Covid-19 world
How City of Bristol College looks in a Covid-19 world Following the outbreak of Covid-19, also known as coronavirus, City of Bristol College has taken steps to make all of its centres a safe and enjoyable place to learn.
How have classes changed? We have reduced the number of people in our buildings at one time. To achieve this, most of your courses will include sessions taught at the college supported by online learning to help you reach your full potential. Workshops and classrooms have been altered to hold a small capacity of students. Protective screens have been put up in relevant areas and Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is to be worn in customer-facing courses such as Hair and Beauty and Catering. We have also modified timetables and class sizes to spread footfall.
What steps have we taken to make our centres Covid-safe? To keep everyone safe, we are asking all staff and students to wear face coverings in communal areas (unless you are exempt on medical grounds). Communal areas include receptions, corridors and food halls. When you arrive at any of our centres, you will be asked to complete a temperature check in the reception area. If your temperature records 37 degrees or lower, you are fine to enter the building.
There are hand sanitiser points throughout each college centre. There will also be wipes in all classrooms and communal areas and we ask all students and staff to clean down their tables when they depart the room. In food halls we have made purchasing your food easier and safer with our Click and Collect service. You can now order from your phone and then arrange a time to collect your meal from the food hall.
