    Here is the latest news from Derby College Group (DCG) View this email in your browser I am delighted to welcome you to the new academic year at Derby College Group. It has been a busy summer at Derby College Group enrolling new students online and preparing for the new academic year ahead. As the new academic year begins, I thank you for your patience and understanding as we continue to move fluidly, and adapt to constantly changing circumstances, government guidance and scientific advice. These first weeks of term are classed as an induction period for students. Your child will have received an introduction to their study programme, been given access to an online student handbook, their own Derby College email address and access to our online learning space, Moodle. They will also have been allocated a personal coach who will work with them throughout their time at College and help ensure they achieve a positive destination after their study programme. I am as frustrated as many of you will be, about the impact that some of the COVID avoidance requirements are having on our students however, my main concern must remain the health of our students and mitigating the risk of further disruption to our students’ education. To this end, some difficult decisions have had to be made; I am personally responsible for imposing the strict bubbling system, which reflects the SAGE advice on segmenting, which states that ‘segmenting of student/staff populations (e.g. by course, year group, site, etc) should be designed to support easier detection of linked cases and, if necessary, enable more targeted closure / quarantine.
