Changes to modules starting from August 2020
We’ve made some minor changes to modules starting in the 2020/21 Academic Year that we want to make students aware of.
As a result of the current COVID-19 pandemic, it has been necessary to move certain compulsory day schools and residential schools to an online format, and all of our tutorials will be online until at least January 2021. Though the services and support may now vary slightly to what students initially expected, the content of the modules will remain the same. Our priority continues to be providing a high-quality learning experience, and we will work to ensure that students are not disadvantaged by these changes.
We continue to monitor the Government guidance surrounding the current COVID-19 pandemic to ensure that students and staff can study and work safely. For this reason, the Coronavirus (COVID-19) Help Centre article and the module checker spreadsheet will be updated at 17:00 every Thursday. If there are any significant changes to our services and courses, we will continue to contact affected students.
To see the changes that we have made, please visit the Study from September / October 2020 section on our Coronavirus HelpCentre page. From there, you'll be able to access a spreadsheet that shows any changes made to modules starting from August 2020.Any updates to this spreadsheet will be recorded below (from newest to oldest changes).
