England’s largest community education college City Lit has cancelled online lessons until the new year due to serious “IT disruption”.
London’s City Lit is also currently unable to process enrolments online or by phone.
Investigators have been drafted in by the college to assess what happened and bring systems back online in time for an anticipated post-Christmas rush of enrolments as adult plan their new year’s resolutions.
The college’s website has been down now for a week. It’s been replaced by a holding page which states: “We are experiencing some disruption to our IT services. As a result, face-to-face classes are continuing as scheduled wherever possible, while online classes are temporarily suspended. At the moment, we are not able to process enrolments online or over the phone.
“We would like to apologise for the inconvenience and thank you for your patience. Further updates will be provided as appropriate.”
