Additional health and safety measures

Thank you for your patience during these challenging times. It is now time to focus on your learning goals again and we look forward to seeing you and your kids soon. 

We have extra health and safety measures in place in our teaching centres and exam venues. 

Measures in our teaching centres

Your health is our priority and we have implemented the following procedures, following government guidelines, to ensure the teaching centre is as safe as possible for our students:

  • Hand sanitizer will be available at entrance/exit to the Teaching Centre (you may wish to bring your own bottle of sanitizer for the classroom).
  • Break times will be staggered to minimise contact between groups of students.
  • Toilets and frequently touched surfaces will be cleaned regularly.

Measures in our exam venues

The health of our test takers and staff is our priority. Before we open any test centre: 

  • We ensure that we are following all local government safety guidelines as well as those of the British Council. 
  • We brief our test centre staff so they are up to date on what to do and how to prepare for the arrival of test takers. 

We have put the following measures in place to make our test centres as safe as possible: 

  • Test venues will be cleaned thoroughly prior to each test session. 
  • In the case of computer-delivered tests all equipment will be sanitised prior to each session. 
  • Our staff will be wearing masks. 
  • You will be required to wear a mask in all common areas and maintain a two-metre [adapt to local regulations if applicable] physical distance at all times. 
  • If you would like to, you may also wear latex gloves although this is not required. 
  • We will provide sanitisers throughout the test venue and we ask that all test takers use them regularly or wash their hands to help ensure a safe environment. 
  • We will not provide pens or pencils to test takers who will be asked to bring their own stationery on the test day.
