Plain English Summary

4/10 complexity

This law makes the National Standards for ELICOS providers and courses legally enforceable under the ESOS Act, so rules about class sizes, teacher qualifications and student welfare bind English-language colleges for overseas students. By incorporating the external standards "as they exist from time to time," regulators and providers are subject to updates on the standards website without new parliamentary legislation.
