Bridget Phillipson ( Secretary of State for Education ) delivers a speech at the Embassy Education Conference.
How wonderful to hear this positive message! UK Secretary of State for Education Bridget Phillipson emphasized that international students are truly valued in the UK, recognizing their important contributions to universities, communities, and the country during her speech at the ‘Embassy Education Conference.
“For too long international students have been treated as political footballs, not valued guests… Their fees welcomed, but their presence resented. Exploited for cheap headlines, not cherished for all they bring to our communities. “This government will take a different approach and we will speak clearly.”
The new government of The Labour Party in the UK has made a positive change in their rhetoric, which is very encouraging. They have also made a clear statement about visa “We will do everything we can to help international students succeed, she said. “That’s why we offer the opportunity to remain in the UK on a graduate visa for two years after their studies end – or three for PhDs – to work, to live, and to contribute.”
