Important Announcements for all Students

16 To 19 Tuition Fund 21-22 Academic Year

Welcome to all students – new and returning!

Updated Covid guidance

Guidance is changing frequently and we adhere to current Government guidance.

Covid tests

We require all students to test before they come to your first lesson of each half term, and then twice a week using lateral flow tests provided by the college or in the community. Everyone must follow Government guidance regarding self isolation.

If you test positive or need to self isolate please complete this form. You must be logged into your college account to access the form. (It will ask you to upload evidence). Please be aware that self isolation rules change frequently and many people no longer need to self isolate if they are close contacts. This is a helpful website. (links to NHS website)

Masks

All students, staff and visitors must wear masks in corridors and communal areas (unless eating or drinking or taking part in certain activities) unless they are exempt. It is no longer compulsory for masks to be worn in classrooms however if a staff members asks you to wear a mask you must do so unless exempt. Updated 20 January 2022.

 

January exams

Many students are taking exams this month. These include BTEC and CACHE units. Some students will be taking A Level or other mock exams.

Students should check ProPortal for your personalised exams timetable.  Please also refer to any email you have received from the exams team which gives detailed guidance for your exam.

Attendance at exams

It is very important that you make every effort to attend your exam. The only reason you should not attend is if you are ill and/or are required to isolate under current Covid guidelines.

(Many people do not now need to isolate if a family member is positive. See ‘When you do not need to self isolate’ on this link)

Covid tests before exams

Please test with a Lateral Flow Covid test before each exam. If you have a positive Covid result you cannot attend your exam.  You must report this on this link. You must be signed into your student account to access the form, and it will ask you to upload evidence of your positive test. You must report this ON or BEFORE the exam date.  If you need more Lateral Flow tests you can collect them from College.

Masks for exams

In line with national guidance for exams, you will need to wear a mask on arrival to and departure from your exam.
We will not ordinarily expect you to wear a mask during your exam but please be prepared to do so if this is required.

Bring your college ID

Don’t forget, you must take your college ID to all exams. Entry to the exam will be refused if you do not have your ID.

Any questions? 

If you are uncertain about any arrangements for your exams please email: MIS@NCCLondon.ac.uk.

We wish you every success in your exams.

  • Safeguarding

    The safety and security of our students and staff are of paramount importance to us. New City College has a moral duty to promote and safeguard the welfare of its students who are under the age of 18, and vulnerable adults.

    We remain one of the safest colleges in London and the South East. We have full-time safety officers at each campus whose sole task is to keep the site safe and to look out for any possible threats to our students and staff.

    Any student who feels unsafe or who feels there is a threat to their well-being should speak to a member of staff straight away. Information about Safeguarding Officers and how to contact them are visible at each campus. See this page about staying safe at college.
