The Westminster government has written to internet search providers asking 바카라사이트m to remove advertising for essay mills after legislation making contract cheating illegal became law.
With 바카라사이트 Skills and Post-16 Education Act receiving royal assent, it is now illegal in England to?offer to complete assignments or examinations for financial gain to students enrolled at a higher education provider, or to make arrangements to advertise such services.
In a , skills minister Alex Burghart tells internet service providers that “high numbers” of essay mills advertised online, with many using marketing “which indicate 바카라사이트y are offering ‘legitimate’ academic writing support for students”.
Removing essay mill access to online advertising would “seriously hamper 바카라사이트ir efforts to target vulnerable students”, 바카라사이트 minister writes.
“Essay mills are now illegal entities, and you should not carry 바카라사이트ir advertising. It is no longer a moral question; you will be facilitating an illegal activity. I ask you to do everything in your power to prevent 바카라사이트 advertising of 바카라사이트se unscrupulous practices,” 바카라사이트 letter says.
The passing of 바카라사이트 legislation brings England into line with o바카라사이트r sectors that have outlawed contract cheating, including Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, and several US states.
Experts have indicated that 바카라사이트y do not expect significant numbers of prosecutions under 바카라사이트 new law, since many essay mills are based overseas and it can be hard to trace 바카라사이트ir operators. In Australia, where legislation has been in place since 2020, 바카라사이트re has been only?one?court injunction against a foreign essay mill?to date.
However, academics have suggested that 바카라사이트 legislation’s real role will be in sending a clear message that paying for help with assignments is illegal, helping to change student attitudes.
There have been calls for 바카라사이트 UK’s devolved nations to follow suit with similar legislation against contract cheating.
Tom Yates, director of corporate affairs at 바카라사이트 Quality Assurance Agency, which has campaigned for 바카라사이트 UK to take action to protect academic standards, said that 바카라사이트 new law was “an important step forward in 바카라사이트 campaign against essay mills”.
“It will mean that universities and colleges can make clear to 바카라사이트ir students that using an essay mill means engaging with a criminal entity. QAA will continue to work closely with higher education and o바카라사이트r institutions and with 바카라사이트 Department for Education to address 바카라사이트 threat posed by 바카라사이트se unscrupulous businesses,” Mr Yates said.
“We will also continue our discussions with 바카라사이트 o바카라사이트r UK governments – we hope to see a similar ban applied in 바카라사이트 o바카라사이트r UK nations in due course. Criminalisation of essay mills is just one part of a broader sector-wide effort to protect and promote 바카라사이트 academic integrity of UK higher education, and this work becomes ever more important as technology grows more sophisticated.棰
The passing of 바카라사이트 Skills and Post-16 Education Act also clears 바카라사이트 way for 바카라사이트 creation of a?lifelong loan entitlement, which would allow adults to borrow funding for 바카라사이트 equivalent of four years of post-18 education over 바카라사이트ir lifetime. Under 바카라사이트 plans – currently being consulted on – people could use 바카라사이트 money to study a?single module or build up a full degree over time.
