Quality mark to be established for language schools
30/08/2009 - 12:20:37Education Minister Batt O'Keefe is to establish a quality mark for language schools and colleges of further education.
The initiative, which aims to attract overseas students, requires legislation.
Colleges will need to comply with a code of practice to qualify for inclusion in the scheme.
The standardised regulations mean institutions will have to clearly state entry requirements and show that a certain proportion of international students undertake exams within the advertised timeframe of the courses.
