Those who do not take tests, or only have one test, will still be able to leave at the same time - with an encouragement to "travel home as safely as possible" during the "travel window" of 3 to 9 December, which the government has identified as when it expects most students to leave university for Christmas.
那些不参加考试或只参加一次考试的学生仍然可以在同一时间离开,同时鼓励他们在12月3日至9日的“旅行窗口”期间“尽可能安全地回家”。政府已经确定,这是预计大多数学生将离开大学过圣诞节的时候。

检测呈阳性的学生将被要求接受另一种测试-聚合酶链式反应(PCR)测试,以确认他们是否感染了病毒-在等待结果期间,他们将不得不留下来自我隔离。
But those who test positive from this PCR test will be required to stay in their term-time accommodation for 10 days of self-isolation - which should still leave enough time to get back before Christmas.
