Springboard is taking precautionary steps across our locations to minimise potential risk to both our learners, visitors and staff.
As a preventative measure, we have implemented mandatory protocol for all staff and learners to follow to reduce all risk. This protocol is based upon Public Health England information, and ensures appropriate steps are taken in the case of potential exposure to the virus.
We have implemented the use of a one way system, mandatory masks in all public spaces, hand sanitiser stations throughout, designated toilets, shields where necessary, and of course the track and trace system is in use for all staff and learners.
Learners and staff who have suspected symptoms, or who are diagnosed with Coronavirus must not come into Springboard delivery sites if there is a risk that they could spread the virus. You must contact your line manager or tutor at the earliest convenience.
Guidance is changing regularly, so please ensure that you look at the current Government advice.
