We’ve also published an article looking at patterns of prevalence and transmission of #COVID19 in a selection of universities http://ow.ly/1XSZ50CQNJ5 
We’ve published interactive maps showing how the number of cases in students spread across the cities for @UniofExeter and @lborouniversity in halls of residence and private residences http://ow.ly/BtBv50CQNT7 
Data from the @UniofExeter show a peak in cases after the start of term on 21 September.

However, positivity rates positive cases in students at both Exeter and @lborouniversity fell as the term progressed, with lower levels of infection in November http://ow.ly/CGoI50CQNVa 
Data from universities in England show the risk of transmission was higher in settings like student houses, and larger outbreaks occurred in halls of residence.

However, there was little evidence of the virus spreading in face-to-face teaching settings http://ow.ly/WVel50CQO7q 
There is not enough evidence in this data to be certain whether infections spread from the wider population into the student population, or whether the arrival of students affected the rising levels of #COVID19 in the wider community http://ow.ly/pm4Z50CQObV 
This analysis doesn’t yet provide a full picture of the nature and level of transmission among higher education students across England.

However, it provides some insight into where and how #COVID19 transmission happens http://ow.ly/pm4Z50CQObV
