The Italian Association of Language Consultants and Agents, the Spanish Association of Promoters of Language Courses Abroad, and CAPS-I collaborated on the operation.

The Migration Advisory Committee is scheduled to review the visa program and claims that low-wage migrants, not “global talent,” are being drawn to the UK via the graduate route. The committee stated in its December annual report that it was “sceptical” about the post-study visa’s ability to draw in highly skilled workers to the UK.

Manchester claims that a new solution will be introduced in September 2024. A motion to oppose the monitoring and control of Tier 4 visa holders’ attendance was approved by the University and College Union branch…
