    Covid 19 Data Policy (6th January, 2022)

    In light of the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, Barts will need to ensure that it continues to provide a safe environment for people to work and study and that appropriate measures are in place to support compliance with Government guidance.

    a) What data are we requesting?

    • Covid vaccination status, including the number of jabs/boosters.
    • Date of most recent vaccine/booster.

    b) Why are we asking for and recording this data?

    • Individuals work in close proximity with other individuals, in small rooms, with limited ventilation.
    • Covid cases in the local area and nationally are high.

    c) What are we trying to achieve by asking for and storing data pertaining to student and staff vaccination statuses?

    • Mitigating disruptions to learning.
    • Keeping vulnerable staff and students safe, along with their families.
    • Reducing the likelihood of having to close the college due to a positive case.
    • Reducing the spread of covid in our college community.

    d) Can we achieve our goals without collecting this data?

    • Without this information we are limited in our ability to protect the health of staff, tutors, and students. It would also negatively impact our ability to assess and manage any risks relating to individuals working or studying at Barts.

    e) How is this data stored and kept secure?

    • The data is stored on a central computer, which is password protected and only accessible by senior staff.

    f) What other measures are in place to protect students and staff?

    • Masks to be worn in common areas by all staff and students, unless exempt.
    • Screens in tutorial rooms
    • Requesting that Lateral Flow Device tests be taken regularly by students and staff but daily if not fully vaccinated. Best practice would be for all students and staff to take an LFD on a daily basis, before arriving at college.
    • If an unvaccinated student or member of staff is unable to take an LF, a mask should be worn at all times, during teaching or otherwise, on the premises, unless exempt.

    The use of this data must not result in any unjustified treatment of employees, students, or visitors.

    Data may be withdrawn at any time, without justification, by any staff member or student who requests this.

    What the government is saying about Covid 19 and isolation rules (6th January, 2022)

    COVID-19 infection rates are very high and the Omicron variant is spreading rapidly. It is important that we all take steps to reduce the spread of COVID-19 infection in the community to save lives and protect the NHS.

    If you have COVID-19 symptoms you should stay at home and self-isolate immediately. You should arrange to have a PCR test as soon as possible. If this PCR test result is positive, you must continue to self-isolate.

    If you do not have COVID-19 symptoms, but you have a positive PCR test result, you must stay at home and self-isolate.

    If you live in the same household as someone with COVID-19 you are at significantly higher risk of becoming infected yourself.

    If you have been vaccinated with a COVID-19 vaccine, you are less likely to become severely ill if you catch COVID-19. You are also less likely to spread COVID-19 to other people, but it is still possible for this to happen. Therefore:
    if you are aged 18 years 6 months or over and you are not fully vaccinated*, and you live in the same household as someone with COVID-19, you are legally required to stay at home and self-isolate
    if you are fully vaccinated or aged under 18 years and 6 months, and you live in the same household as someone with COVID-19, you are not legally required to self-isolate. However, you are strongly advised to take an LFD test every day for 7 days, and to self-isolate if any of these test results is positive

    *You are fully vaccinated 14 days after having received 2 doses of an approved vaccine (such as Pfizer/BioNTech, AstraZeneca or Moderna/Spikevax) or one dose of the single-dose Janssen vaccine.

    LFD tests are very good at identifying people who have high levels of coronavirus and are most likely to pass on infection to others, even if you do not have symptoms.

    Testimonials

    I came to Barts because I failed my A-levels at another college and was consequently unable to get to uni on the course I wanted (Biomedicine). After only a year at Barts I was able to turn my A-levels around (pretty astonishing considering it took two years to fail the first time I did them!). As a result of going to Barts, I was able get to Uni. In fact, I actually had a choice of where I wanted to go.

    Tobias Allen

    Being a student at Barts was brilliant. I felt like I was listened to by my teachers and supervisor, and made to feel comfortable and supported throughout my university applications and my studies.

    My teachers knew their subjects inside out and I felt reassured that I could get through the content before my exams.

    Phoebe Jones

    Barts were amazing. My son's tutor was perfect in every way, we couldn’t have asked for a more amazing chap to not only turn 2 C’s into an A star and an A grade, but also the level of care and support was beyond anything we could have hoped for. Barts is like a family that care for you from start to finish. When the experience is all all over, you miss them. I cannot recommend them more highly. A star Barts!

    Jo Miller

    My daughter attended Barts for tuition in one subject in year 13 whilst she was at sixth form college, as ill health was affecting her grades. Everyone at Barts was incredibly kind and supportive, and they were happy to work in a way that suited my daughter. Their sincere interest in their pupils was apparent from the very first meeting. I think it is a unique and exceptional place.

    Alison Cowley

    The one to one tuition allows you to get the most out of each lesson. While the socials and common room ensure that you are far from isolated. Your individual progress is monitored as the year goes on, helping to ensure and enable you to reach your full potential. Bartholomews proved to be everything I needed and more and I would sincerely urge others to consider going here.

    Paige Allen

    Barts have helped our family in so many ways. Mike was hugely supportive - he listened and supported in very different ways.

    I can't thank them enough. From extra GCSE learning support to an extra A level - the teaching was excellent and their approach always well suited.
