The move will help students return home for Christmas safely, the Department for Education says.

More than 50 universities are believed to have had coronavirus cases so far this term, with thousands of students forced to self-isolate.said universities in England could move to online-only learning before term would usually end

so that students in areas with outbreaks would have time to isolate and still be able to travel home at Christmas. According to the Guardian, the government's plan, which is said to be in its early stages, would see students told to stay on campus and all in-person teaching paused from 8 December until 22 December.

Responding to the reports, general secretary of the University and College Union Jo Grady said: "This is an unworkable and chaotic set of measures that will be impossible to deliver or oversee. "Instead of this perverse obsession with Christmas, ministers and universities must focus on the here and now.
