BRITAIN: FOREIGN STUDENTS NOT FROM THE EUROPEAN UNION TO BE BANNED FROM WORKING AFTER COURSES

In a fresh crackdown on immigration ordered by Home Secretary, Theresa May, foreign students are to be banned from working in Britain after their courses but have to leave the country before reapplying to return for a job.
These new rules will however apply to students that are not from the European Union(EU). This is to stop foreigners from using colleges as the, 'back door to a British work visa'.
Official figures show that in the 12 months to June last year, 121,000 non-EU students entered Britain but only 51,000 left- a net influx of 70,000.
Home Secretary , Theresa May has banned 870 bogus colleges from taking foreign students.
Under the new rules, non-EU students will not be allowed to work in the UK nor extend their visa once their courses finish. Students will have to leave and reapply to return under a work visa.
