Important Information: Tube Strikes

You may be aware from the media that the RMT Union is planning to strike on various networks next week. Due to these strikes, timetabled lessons on the dates below will take place Remotely/Online.

If any strikes are cancelled, students will be required to attend lessons face-to-face on-site at the Academy. Please look out for MS Teams invites for your lessons on the strike dates from your Group Lead.

Attendance will be registered in the usual way and your presence in all lessons, which will run to the usual times, is expected. 

Planned Remotely/Online dates: 

• Monday 8th September
• Tuesday 9th September
• Wednesday 10th September
• Thursday 11th September
• Friday 12th September

Please note: 

The ELT has made the decision to advise students that learning will take place remotely (providing the strikes go ahead) on the days in which it will be extremely difficult for both staff and students to travel to and from the FRA. If these strikes are cancelled, then learning will take place as normal face-to-face and this may be communicated at short notice.
