Last March, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the UK entered into a national lockdown. This lockdown, and the following lockdowns in November and January, have had devastating impacts across the UK.

Collab Group (@collabgrp) is delighted to announce the release of a document based on how colleges have responded to the disruption caused by the coronavirus pandemic.  

It has been just over a year since the World Health Organisation declared COVID-19 a global pandemic, a year which has seen all of our lives change in unrecognisable ways. However, a semblance of normality is on the horizon, with the intense vaccine rollout in operation, providing some optimism for a better future.

The status of colleges has never been greater. Colleges will be critical to a range of important government policy areas, from helping economic recovery to "Levelling Up" across the country. Collab Group represents some of the largest urban and regional college groups across the UK, and they need to be “front and centre” of delivering skills to help us Build Back Better.
