1. Latest information on coronavirus (COVID-19)
The Department for Education has published guidance about COVID-19 in educational settings for staff, parents and carers, pupils and students on GOV.UK.
Please check GOV.UK regularly for updates.
2. Reminder: 16 to 19 tuition fund statement
As a condition of receiving payment from the 16 to 19 tuition fund, providers were required to:
- produce a concise statement explaining how they will use this funding in line with our guidance to prioritise support for disadvantaged students
- publish the statement on their website in the autumn term
We will be conducting spot checks from 8 February to confirm statements have been published.
