Arrangements for students in Hilary term

All students received an email last Thursday, outlining the University’s arrangements for Hilary term. It confirmed that most teaching is expected to be in-person this term, and that students are expected to be in Oxford. It also highlighted that face coverings are now mandated in teaching and assessment settings (unless exempt), and when moving around University buildings. 

Members of staff conducting the teaching are not required to wear face coverings, to support education delivery. The Centre for Teaching and Learning has updated its guidance on in-person teaching with face coverings to reflect the current guidance, including tips on how to plan a teaching session, as well as ways to encourage interaction and cohort building with students.
