MONITORING BOARD FOR ENGLISH LANGUAGE SCHOOLS REMINDER IN CONNECTION WITH UNLICENSED SCHOOLS

The Monitoring Board for EFL Schools hereby draws the attention of all those concerned that no person or entity is permitted to carry out any publicity or promote any services related to EFL Schools, either locally or in foreign countries, unless fully licensed by the above mentioned Board in conformity with the Education Act par. 42 (2): "Any person who opens or keeps a school without licence from the Minister shall be guilty of an offence and shall, on conviction, be liable to the punishments established for contraventions…"

An applicant for EFL School Licence must conform with the relevant regulations governing the issue of a licence to operate an EFL school. No applicant is to presume that a licence shall be granted upon application.

The Monitoring Board considers only those teachers that have an EFL Permit issued by the same Board as authorized to teach in any local EFL School in terms of Govt Notice Nr. 385.

The Board shall be publishing the list of schools fully licensed and authorized to TEFL (Teach English as a Foreign Language) in Malta in the Government Gazette and shall be forwarding copy to all Maltese embassies and delegations in other countries for reference.
