On Wednesday 26 February, following Foreign & Commonwealth Office advice released the same day, a total of 150 students at the Shuttleworth College campus near Biggleswade, Bedfordshire, have been advised to go home and self-quarantine until Sunday evening.
This follows a recent trip for a group of students who visited Pila, Italy, as well as a number of residential students who travelled over the half term break and who returned to campus on Sunday 16 February.
No students are believed to be suffering symptoms and this is just a precautionary measure.
Staff at the college campuses are reminding students, staff and visitors of the health and hygiene precautions to follow and the college remains open to other students.
