Information for all students - Update on Government announcement about national lockdown

We have been asked to share with you a copy of this open letter to all students from the Minister of State for Universities, Michelle Donelan MP.

In line with the Minister's advice for Universities, at the University of Birmingham we will be continuing our current bimodal approach to teaching and learning with both face-to-face and online sessions, and libraries and study spaces will remain open on campus.

You should also be aware that UK Government is currently advising that you should stay in your current home: 'This means you should not leave your term time address to return to your parents’ or carer’s home until at least 2 December - and should continue to learn at university for the remainder of this term.'

Please read the letter carefully and follow the UK Government advice.
