COVID-19 NYFA AUSTRALIA UPDATE

New York Film Academy Australia's ("NYFA Australia") proactive approach to managing the impacts of COVID-19 by implementing a COVID Safe Plan guided by the principle that the health and wellbeing of its community members and the community at large is the highest priority has permitted NYFA Australia to continue to offer primarily in-person, on-campus learning.

Safety and Health Practices for On-Campus Programs

NYFA Australia has implemented strict COVID Safe measures in accordance with evolving public health guidance and best practices for institutions of higher education.

Vaccination and Boosters


Students and Employees: To make continued in-person learning as safe as possible, NYFA Australia requires students, faculty and staff to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 except in cases of medical contraindication or when participating in the NYFA Australia COVID-19 Testing program.

Visitors: All visitors 16 and up who are not fully vaccinated, can enter campus on the understanding that they are required to wear an authorised face mask for the entire duration of their visit to campus.

Testing


NYFA Australia requires students, faculty and staff to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 except in cases of medical contraindication or when participating in the NYFA Australia COVID-19 Testing program. At the discretion of the COVID Safe Team there may be instances where testing is requested. NYFA Australia may increase or reduce the frequency of testing as needed.

Physical (or "Social") Distancing

NYFA Australia already benefits from its small class sizes, usually 8-20 students. This maximises student and faculty interaction, and allows us to practice physical distancing more easily than many schools. If required, NYFA Australia may also stagger class start times to lower the number of people entering our space at any given time.

Face Masks


Wearing an appropriate face mask is considered one of the most effective ways to reduce the risk of spreading and contracting the virus. Depending on the level of transmission in the campus region, the extent to which each campus is fully vaccinated, and government department directives, employees and students may be required to wear an authorised face mask whenever on campus and attending indoor NYFA Australia programs with specific exceptions. An authorised face mask is considered to be a multi-layered mask (such as a 3-ply surgical mask, KN95 or N95 mask) to offer the best protection against COVID-19. Coverings such as bandanas and “gaiter masks” or other facial coverings not of comparable quality are not considered authorised face masks.

Cleaning and Disinfecting


All classrooms, equipment, and facilities will be disinfected regularly with hospital-grade disinfectant, including high-touch surfaces. Non-touch hand sanitiser dispensers have been thoughtfully placed throughout the campus. Anti-bacterial wipes are available in common areas, offices, and classrooms, and individuals are encouraged to wipe down communal surfaces they’ve touched.

Monitoring and Protecting the Health of Our Community

NYFA Australia has developed a special mobile app that all students and employees currently use to report any symptoms that could be indicative of COVID-19 each day they are scheduled to be on campus or at a NYFA Australia activity. Upon arrival, to gain access to campus each student and employee must show the health monitor their app approval indicating that they have been cleared to enter. This allows NYFA Australia to monitor and support the health of the community and limit possible exposure to the virus on campus. It also helps with the important work of contact tracing in the event that there is a case of COVID-19 in our community. Individuals who are experiencing any of the symptoms that have been identified as related to possible COVID-19 infection are not to be permitted on campus until they have been tested and cleared.

Safety Training

Our safety protocols are only effective if we cooperate and work together to keep our community safe. All students and employees participate in health and safety training to help them understand and comply with health and safety protocols and sign an acknowledgement agreement that underscores their responsibilities.

NYFA Australia has implemented strict COVID Safe measures in accordance with evolving public health guidance and best practices for institutions of higher education. This includes increased hygiene practises; hospital-grade disinfectant cleaning; additional safety, compliance and assurance measures; maintaining physical distancing; reconfiguration of classrooms; introducing COVID-19 risk management strategies; mandatory daily health check-in policies; and the wearing of face masks or coverings as and when recommended by Queensland Department of Health.

NYFA Australia will make adjustments or additions to practices according to the current conditions of both campuses and as necessary for the well-being of the community.

NYFA Australia's COVID Safe Team continues to ensure that the latest recommendations and information from the Department of Health as well as federal, state and local public health and education authorities, are quickly adopted and implemented by NYFA Australia.


Recruitment and Admissions
