In another significant move, the British government has also put curbs on the students from abroad studying in the country on switching to work visas before completing their educational course.

This move is also aimed at clamping down on unprincipled educational and academic agents who focusing more on immigration and less on education. These curbs are expected to come into force as soon as possible, the British authorities said.
