English test scandal: students and campaigners call on PM to end years of limbo

The students who had their visas revoked will present a petition to Downing Street on Tuesday

A group of international students and campaigners are calling on the prime minister to end their years of living in limbo after accusations of cheating in English language tests.

The students had their visas revoked almost 10 years ago after a BBC Panorama documentary reported allegations of cheating at two of the UK's language testing centres for international students.

A simple, free mechanism for students to apply for a decision or reconsideration of their case.

The immigration record of every student cleared of cheating to be wiped clean.

Facilitate students' return to study, or support those on work or entrepreneur visas to find new jobs or restart their businesses - by removing barriers created by the cheating allegations.
