All university students in England can return for in-person teaching next week

All university students in England will be allowed to return to campus for face-to-face teaching next week, Boris Johnson has confirmed.

It comes after some students have been away from campus and learning online since January due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Students returning from 17 May – when England will ease lockdown restrictions further – will be expected to get tested for Covid-19 twice a week throughout the rest of the summer term.
