The University academic and office buildings are generally closed for the Easter break from Friday 29 March to Wednesday 3 April. As in the past, the University’s out-of-hours policy will apply throughout this period. Please click here to see the policy.
Please note that on 2 April, the majority of University buildings will be completely closed to staff and students for 24 hours, due to a required telephone system upgrade. Only the following buildings will remain open on 2 April:
- Highfield Health
- Nuffield Theatre
- University Health Centre
- Southampton General Hospital
- Sports and Leisure facilities
- Halls of Residence
Where access must be granted to a building on 2 April, managers will need to request this access for their staff by sending an email in advance to [email protected]. These staff will be able to access their buildings and will receive an email with more information for use on the day.
If your faculty or school operate an Out of Hours process where buildings are closed in collaboration with Estates and Facilities, please continue to use that process as it is identical to the wider measures detailed above.
Without prior arrangements in place, the remaining buildings will not be accessible. If access MUST be gained at short notice, the 24hr Central Control Room can be contacted on 023 8055 8477 or 023 8055 6842. These phone numbers are specifically provided for this operation only, and should not be used after Tuesday 2 April.
