As part of the investigation announced by the Minister for Immigration and Security on 24 June 2014, the Home Secretary ("SSHD") revoked the sponsor licence of City of London Academy ("CLA") and cited four grounds for doing so:



Sequencing
It is highly suggested that learners first learn the strategies with very straightforward text-types such as forms and tables and gradually work up to the more difficult text-types categories such as letters and miscellaneous reading passages.

Politics.co.uk says this was used to justify thousands of deportations as the Home Office claimed that everyone who had taken the TOEIC test conducted by ETS had committed fraud. The Financial Times reported that it is not clear how many people were deported, but more than 30,000 test scores were considered suspect.

Each unit of work follows the same genre-approach methodology and addresses each of the seven reading strategies. See Figure 1 for a list of the seven strategies and how they correspond with questions frequently encountered on the TOEIC test.

Test Formats
The TOEFL is a four-section test that includes sections for reading, listening, speaking and writing. It is taken exclusively on the computer. The TOEIC is broken into two separate but complementary exams: the Reading and Listening Test, which is a paper-and-pencil test, and the Speaking and Writing Test, which is taken on a computer. The exams are broken up in this way so potential employers can choose to measure an employee's reading and listening or speaking and writing skills only, or all four language skills. The Reading and Listening Test will take about two-and-a-half hours to complete, and for the Speaking and Writing Test, the speaking section will last about 20 minutes, and the writing section will take 60 minutes to complete.

A member of the Indian Workers’ Association told the Hindustan Times that 70 per cent of the 48,000 affected students were Indian, adding: "Due to their personal and national humiliation, many left of their own accord, the majority were deported."

AWS Solicitors, who represented one of the two students in the case, released a press release following the ruling which you can read here on Free Movement. A summary of the judgment is also available here.

You could also watch this old Tex Avery cartoon called "Symphony in Slang," in which a cartoon character tells the story of his life — but using only idioms, which are literally put into animated images. So when the character says he put his foot in his mouth, you see him literally (actually) put his foot into his mouth. But you also understand from the animation what the expression truly means (in this case, that the character had said something wrong, silly or embarrassing).

"There is a lot to be said for the argument that when faced with the exceptional circumstance of fraud of this scope and scale the SSHD was and is entitled to adopt a line of adamantine strict liability whatever her previously published policy may have said."

Test Content
In the TOEFL, the test-taker is measured on his ability to function in an academic environment. In this regard, the vocabulary on this test is academic in nature and is similar to the vocabulary used in college text books. The topics of the reading and listening passages are similarly academic. You may read a passage on bird migration, for example, or listen to a lecture from an economics course. The TOEIC, on the other hand, measures the test-taker's ability to function in a business environment. Topics may range from dining out in a restaurant to presenting in a budget meeting.

A Home Office spokesperson told the Financial Times: "We are very disappointed by the decision and are awaiting a copy of the full determination to consider next steps including an appeal. It would be inappropriate to comment further at this stage."

We are aware that a number of Tier 4 sponsors caught up in the TOEIC fraud investigation have also been accused of breaching their Tier 2 obligations and/or having weak processes in place concerning the rules on academic progression and/or having deficient attendance monitoring processes in place. Whilst it is extremely unlikely that SSHD would agree with Mr Justice Mostyn’s comments that it would be ‘a grossly disproportionate response’ to revoke a licence solely due to grounds (ii) to (iv), these comments may very well instil confidence in any sponsor that has its licence revoked on these grounds and seeks to challenge that decision in the future.
