Question to the Department for Business and Trade:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, what steps he has taken to promote English as a Foreign Language schools in global markets.

My Department works closely with English UK and has provided support for their English with Confidence campaign, including through the production of promotional material and hosting English language teaching agents during familiarisation visits. Most recently the Department took a delegation of UK providers from the sector to Mongolia, and to the Study World event in China.
