    Over the Christmas Break, we will be performing configuration changes for a number of the dynamic distribution lists currently in use, such as #SCH-AssociateStaff.

    These updates will improve the flexibility we have over the management of these groups, in line with a number of requests we have received.

    During this period of change, these groups may temporarily stop working. Once the maintenance is complete, they will be fully operational again, under the same names and email addresses.

    We will update this status page once the work is complete.
