Foreign Students Will Be Banned From Working And Forced To Leave The UK by souljaboi51(m): 5:07pm On Jul 12, 2015
For those who intend to work after studying in the UK, please consider this.


Foreign students will be banned from working and forced to leave the UK when their course ends


.Non-EU students will be barred from working while studying in Britain
.Will have to leave the UK when their course ends under immigration curbs
.Students told they can only apply for a work visa once they have left




Foreign students are to be banned from working in Britain under a fresh crackdown on immigration ordered by Home Secretary Theresa May.
When courses finish they will have to leave the country before reapplying to return for a job.
Ministers say the new rules, which will apply to all those from outside the European Union, will stop colleges being used as a 'back door to a British work visa'.

Under the new rules, non-EU students will be denied the right to work while in the UK and will not be able to apply for a visa extension when their course finishes.
Students will have to leave the country before applying to return under a work visa.
The length of stay is also expected to be cut to two years when the plans are unveiled this week.
Immigration Minister James Brokenshire said it was 'part of our plan to control immigration for the benefit of Britain'.
'Immigration offenders want to sell illegal access to the UK jobs market and there are plenty of people willing to buy.
'Hard-working taxpayers who are helping to pay for publicly funded colleges expect them to be providing topclass education, not a back door to a British work visa.'
Business Secretary Sajid Javid signalled on Friday that the govermment would stop the education system being abused by immigrants.
He said: 'What we need to make sure – and we do have this – is that our immigration system allows those from abroad that want to come to Britain to study in our world-class universities, our fantastic colleges to come here,' he told the Today programme.
'But we've also got to have a system that doesn't allow any abuse when people are using the right to study as a way to achieve settlement in Britain.
'So we've got to break the link and make sure it's focused on people who want to study and then, once they've had their studies and completed that, then they leave.'
But universities have warned that any clampdown could damage the sector and business leaders are also wary of the move, warning it could rob Britain of vital skills.
Seamus Nevin, head of employment and skills at the Institute of Directors, said: 'The Business Secretary's proposals to eject foreign students after graduation are misguided and would damage the British education system, our economy and global influence.
'Britain already makes it difficult and artificially expensive for international students to enter and stay, and now these proposals would eject them ignominiously when their studies are finished.
'Restricting talented workers from staying on in the UK would damage business and lead to a loss of important skills.
'Shutting the door to highly-trained international graduates at a time when our economy needs them most would be hugely damaging for UK businesses.
'In the interests our education sector, our businesses, and our international standing, the Business Secretary should reconsider this proposal

Sad as it might seem for some peeps, I think it can be a blessing for Nigeria kinda. We have too many sharp minds in the UK who can help better our nation.

You just think about Nigeria and all u wanna do is cry cos you know we have what it takes to better UAE or even UK. Our Leaders who put us in this state will never find peace.

To the poster above me, it's not fair o! Since u have nothing to say, why u con take FTC. lipsrsealed. ?

International students pay 3X what home students pay. It is already very difficult to remain in the UK legally after studying in the UK. Well i am sure other countries and their Universities would not mind taking the revenue international student tuition brings, because i doubt anyone would want to pay all that only to be kicked out as soon as he/she finishes.

LOL

Upon all our foreign exchange dumped into their country, they just want to collect and not pay back. What is the use of schooling in UK if you cannot get a UK working experience before coming back to Nigeria.

NIgeria should just limit UK cert especially those without working experience, this will make going to UK less attractive
