Temporary closure of Keighley College

18 March, 2020 5:34 pm

We are taking temporary measures to address concerns about coronavirus. Our priority is our staff and students and we have made the difficult but necessary decision to close Keighley College from 3pm on Friday 20 March.

We will be facilitating the continuation of all learning electronically using Google Classroom and other digital platforms. Your tutor will have provided all the details you need to continue your learning remotely. If you are having any issues, please contact your tutor. Also, paper resources are available in college until Friday 20 March, including maths and English resources. It is important that you keep practising your skills and revise over this time.

Please keep checking your emails for updates and announcements.

Some of our provisions have already started working remotely, so if that includes your course, please continue your studies as instructed.

If you think you might have coronavirus or if you have been in close contact with someone who has, please follow the government and NHS advice. Further information can be found here.

We look forward to seeing you back at college soon.

Yours sincerely
