Miss B, a citizen of India, came to the UK with entry clearance as a student. She wanted to enter into full time employment and was advised that unless she obtained a UK degree or recognised MBA she could not switch. She then pursued an MBA course and passed her examinations.

An application for a work permit was made
on behalf of Miss B by her employers to work for a busy dental practice as their practice manager, the position requiring not only previous management experience, but fluency in spoken and written Hindi and Gujarati to serve clients in the particular catchment area. She was able to switch as a UK graduate into full time employment under the Home Office policy on switching.
