Webinar: Immigration Essentials for Independent Schools

A working knowledge of immigration law and practice has never been so important to independent schools as today...

On 5 October, Tier 4 was replaced by the Child Student and Student immigration categories; from 1 January 2021 onwards students from the European Economic Area (EEA) and Switzerland will be subject to the same immigration requirements as those from the rest of the world. With so much changing it is vital that schools ensure that they are aware of how these changes will affect their activities as sponsors of international students.

During this webinar we will cover the following topics:

• Child Student visa sponsorship and how it differs from Tier 4
• Sponsoring pupils from EEA countries from 1 January 2021
• Immigration checks on pupils and other sponsor compliance responsibilities
• Assigning Confirmations of Acceptance for Studies (CAS)
• Basic Compliance Assessments and annual CAS requests
• Biometric Residence Permits, including alternative collection arrangements
• Reporting to UKVI​
• The impact of coronavirus (COVID-19) on student visa sponsorship
• What to do when things go wrong

Speakers:

• Tom Brett Young
• Judith Hockin
