Face Masks (Fri 3 Dec 2:55 pm)

Face coverings on corridors and inside social spaces for staff and students (unless exempt) will still need to be worn following the latest government guidance. If numbers continue to rise students may need to wear a face covering in lessons. If your child would like to wear a face covering in class from Monday that is fine.

Please ensure that your child has a face covering with them each day with a clear plastic bag to keep it in when not on the corridors. There will be some face coverings available as students enter the college if they have forgotten their face covering but we only have limited stock of these. 

Please could we urge all parents/carers to continue to test their children twice weekly using the LFT kits provided by college and to report any positive cases immediately using covid@unity.lancs.sch.uk.

If your child shows any symptoms of Covid-19, I urge you to get them tested as soon as possible.

If your child comes home with a yellow letter from college regarding close contact with a confirmed Covid-19 case then we strongly advise that you book a PCR test for your child as soon as possible.

Thank you again for your support.

Collection of 2021 Exam Certificates (Wed 1 Dec 12:55 pm)

Examination certificates for Summer 2021 are now available for you to collect from Main Reception, Monday to Friday 9am – 4:15pm.   

Due to the ongoing pandemic, please wear a mask when you enter the building. There is hand sanitiser next to the reception desk, which must be used before signing for your certificates upon collection. Please bring I.D. with you. If you are unable to collect the certificates yourself and would like someone else to on your behalf, we will need a signed letter from you, stating the name of your nominated representative and they must bring I.D. with them.

Catch up Vaccinations / New eligible vaccinations (Tue 23 Nov 12:05 pm)

Following on from their visit to college for the Covid-19 vaccine programme, East Lancashire NHS would like parents to be aware that there are clinics available at the Acorn Centre in Accrington on 11th & 18th December for those students who were unable to have their vaccine in college.

These clinics are available to book on the national booking system (https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/coronavirus-covid-19/coronavirus-vaccination/book-coronavirus-vaccination/). This may also show clinics closer to home.

The current guidance is that any child who has had a positive Covid test in the last 12 weeks is unable to have their jab unless they are an unpaid carer, have underlying medical conditions or are in a household with immunosuppressed contacts. In this case these children are still only able to have their jab 4 weeks after a positive Covid test.
