Marriotts have undertaken a full assessment of our practises to ensure we can reduce the risk of Covid-19 to an acceptable level whilst re-opening our doors to students for the 20/21 academic year. There are several documents and videos found on this webpage to inform and guide students on the temporary expectations starting in September.

The following are symptoms of coronavirus:
Individuals will need a test if they have any of the following:
- A high temperature: any new high temperature where the person feels hot to touch on their chest or back (you do not need to measure the temperature);
- A new continuous cough: coughing a lot for more than an hour, or three or more coughing episodes in 24 hours;
- A loss of, or change in, sense of smell or taste: a noticeable loss of smell or taste or things smell and taste different to normal.
Individuals do not need a test if they have a runny nose, are sneezing or feeling unwell but do not have a temperature, cough or loss of, or change in, sense of smell or taste because these are not normally symptoms of coronavirus.
If you develop symptoms: self-isolate and get a test
If you think that you or a family member has coronavirus symptoms, self-isolate immediately.
The next thing to do is to seek to order a test. If you have internet access, go to https://www.gov.uk/get-coronavirus-test
Testing is run by national Government, not the County Council.
If you cannot access the internet to get a test, call 119 instead.
Your child is a close contact of a confirmed Covid-19 case.
Young people under the age of 18 years and six months do not have to isolate if they are a close contact of a confirmed Covid-19 case.
They should still get a PCR test.
They only need to isolate if they have any symptoms up until they get a negative Covid test result or 10 days have passed since symptoms were first experienced.
What is a close contact?
Close contact means:
- direct close contacts - face to face contact with an infected individual for any length of time, within 1 metre, including being coughed on, a face to face conversation, or unprotected physical contact (skin-to-skin).
- proximity contacts - extended close contact (within 1 to 2 metres for more than 15 minutes) with an infected individual.
- travelling in a small vehicle, like a car, with an infected person.
Please try to avoid close contact with all other staff members and students so that in the event of a confirmed case you do not need to isolate.
Please ensure all seating plans are correct and in place as I will request these in the event of a confirmed case.
