New Law Forces Language Schools to Shut Down
Over 100 schools nationwide have been forced to close
Schools say the new law is too restrictive
A new law that went into effect on July 1st has forced over 100 language schools nationwide to shut down. The law, which was passed by Congress in December of last year, requires all language schools to be accredited by a government-approved agency. Many of the schools that have been forced to close did not meet this requirement.
The schools say that the new law is too restrictive and that it will make it difficult for people to learn languages. They also say that the law is unfair because it does not apply to other types of schools, such as music schools and art schools.
The government says that the new law is necessary to protect students from predatory schools. They say that the law will ensure that all language schools meet certain minimum standards.
The debate over the new law is likely to continue. In the meantime, the schools that have been forced to close are looking for ways to stay open.
