According to relevant statistics, Britain is the investment destination of China enterprises in Europe, and it is also the most desirable destination for China families in Europe. Britain is one of the first countries in the world to introduce welfare policies. Its welfare system is a textbook for western scenic spots, and the government's pension policy and free medical care for all people make people's lives full of protection. British education is world-famous, and there are many world-famous institutions of higher learning. It is a paradise that many students dream of and a destination for China students to study abroad.

All the students who have studied and lived in Britain will fall in love with this country and want to stay here forever. But once upon a time, staying was such a luxurious dream. The high threshold of 2 million pounds and high investment make many families stop at the door. At the same time, the cancellation of PSW visa made it impossible to study and work in the UK. However, God never shuts one door but he opens another. Such a proud country has launched a 200,000-pound entrepreneurial immigration project, giving investors the opportunity to open the door to Britain.

Eight. Education and welfare

The British government's education fund supports all students to receive free education, including free distribution of books and all learning tools. The Ministry of Education provides free milk to students in special schools such as deaf-mute and students under 7 years old in other schools every day. Schools generally have canteens, and many schools provide transportation. More than 90% of college students can get government subsidies (that is, tuition fees are paid by the government). In addition, 65,438+00% of the students can get scholarships from the school because of their excellent grades, and some can borrow money from the bank to pay tuition fees. After graduation, I will repay the bank in installments with my salary. Therefore, there will never be a situation in Britain where college students are forced to drop out of school because they can't afford tuition.

But Britain will charge tuition for foreign students. Students from continental Europe only charge a low tuition fee of 300-400 pounds, while students from third world countries such as China charge a high tuition fee of more than 5,000 pounds. The purpose is to prevent the influx of international students from these countries.
