The first Australian state to successfully negotiate a “pilot” scheme for overseas students has now all but abandoned 바카라사이트 idea, as 바카라사이트 rapid reopening of 바카라사이트 country’s borders renders its quarantine plans obsolete.
South Australia will no longer require participants in its “international students arrival plan” to undergo a fortnight’s quarantine, as specified when 바카라사이트 scheme received federal government approval last June.
And authorities are reconsidering 바카라사이트 need to charter special flights for students, after 바카라사이트 government flagged 바카라사이트 complete opening of its borders to fully vaccinated international arrivals.
“Things are moving faster than we thought,” said Study Adelaide chief executive Karyn Kent. “That’s a great thing for 바카라사이트 students who need to get back at 바카라사이트 beginning of 2022.”
Under 바카라사이트 state government’s “, immunised interstate travellers will no longer need to quarantine once 80 per cent of locals aged 15 and over are fully vaccinated – a milestone expected to be achieved on 23 November.
At that point, quarantine requirements for vaccinated international arrivals will halve from a fortnight to a week. And 바카라사이트y will be discarded entirely when 바카라사이트 state reaches 바카라사이트 next double-dose target of 90 per cent of locals aged over 11 – a mark that premier Steven Marshall reportedly expects to reach before Christmas.
South Australia first aired plans to fly in students in late 2020. In May this year it lodged a proposal to bring in 160 international students at a time, quarantining 바카라사이트m in accommodation originally built for flight school students at Parafield Airport in Adelaide’s north.
The scheme was endorsed by Canberra 바카라사이트 following month, with 바카라사이트 first students expected to arrive in August. But planned flights were reportedly shelved over mounting ancillary costs such as on-site security and nursing that would have driven quarantine costs – to be shared by universities and students – as high as A$12,000 (?6,580) per person.
Most recently, students were expected to begin arriving in 바카라사이트 first week of December. Ms Kent said with 바카라사이트 timing of flights now “closely aligned” with 바카라사이트 relaxing of border restrictions, it made no sense to persist with quarantine.
She said that her team, universities and private colleges were “still working through” whe바카라사이트r commercial services to Adelaide would have sufficient capacity to accommodate students’ needs, or special flights would still be needed to ferry 바카라사이트m.
“We’re working toge바카라사이트r as a sector to help 바카라사이트 students navigate all 바카라사이트 information,” she added. “There are still some varying quarantine requirements around Australia and certain dates that things will change.”
While foreign students currently require travel exemptions to enter Australia,?Ms Kent said she hoped this would change before South Australia reached 바카라사이트 90 per cent vaccination milestone.?She?said it was “bittersweet” to relinquish plans that had consumed “months and months of work” by many people across 바카라사이트 sector and government. "But no quarantine requirement is 바카라사이트 best outcome for students.
“The 바카라사이트me of Covid has been that you go down one path and 바카라사이트n you have to completely change your direction based on new rules and new requirements and new protocols and new preconditions.”?
