Immigration: English Language
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether the Home Office English Language Test will be regulated by Ofqual.
- Answer
-
The Home Office English Language Testing Programme remains in live procurement. We anticipate that the successful bidder will hold, or secure, Ofqual recognition. They must then continue to meet the rigorous bar required to comply with Ofqual's regulatory requirements. We are committed to working with Ofqual through to mobilisation to protect the integrity of these high-stakes tests.
