📢IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT 📢
UPDATE 2

All 14 principals of the university and the colleges and research institutions which make up our university partnership met again this morning to coordinate our response to the current coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

We are all acutely aware of the developing situation and advice from the Scottish Government. We know some students will already be affected by the outbreak, either directly or through your family. We understand some of you may be anxious and want to travel home.

As a result, we have decided to suspend the delivery of compulsory face-to-face teaching from close of business today, Tuesday 17 March:
▪️You do not have to attend your campus after today.
▪️You do not have to attend classes in person after today unless you are told otherwise. This includes lectures, tutorials, laboratory classes, seminars etc.
▪️In one or two course-specific cases face-to-face teaching will still be scheduled during the rest of this week, but alternative arrangements will be made for students unable to attend. You will be contacted directly by your course team if this affects you.
▪️Students on placement should cease to attend their placement until further guidance is given, this excludes nursing and midwifery students.
▪️Your local course leaders will be in touch to explain how this will affect you directly and to let you know how they plan to continue teaching and assessment arrangements. It is important that you keep in touch with your course contact. Please note that in some cases it will be next week before final plans are agreed, but course teams will still make initial contact with you by 5pm on Wednesday.
▪️You MUST keep an eye on your student or staff email accounts and also www.uhi.ac.uk/coronavirus where all the latest information will be posted as well as keeping an eye out for information from your local campus.

No campus buildings, including residences, are closing at this present time and please check with your campus for local arrangements including computing facilities and online access if you do not have this at home.

In the meantime, if you have any questions please get in touch with your course contact team and support services or use our red button feedback service: www.uhi.ac.uk/redbutton

Take care of yourselves and your communities. 💜
