British Conservative Party: Planning to hire Taiwanese and language teachers!

– Phased abolition of Confucius Institutes in the UK –

Confucius Institute Abolition Plan:

There is a controversy over phasing out the Confucius Institutes in the UK.

Observer magazine:

A bipartisan group of MPs, including Conservative MP Alicia Kearns.

They are in “negotiations to hire new teachers from Taiwan to replace the British Confucius Institutes.”

Confucius Institutes
are Chinese language, culture and business etiquette schools.

Over 30 schools
are currently in operation and are hosted by a university in the U.K.

in partnership with Beijing-based organization Chinese International Education Foundation (CIEF) and a partner university in China.

According to China Research Group,
a group founded by Conservative MPs Tom Tugendhat and Neil O’Brien,

the U.K. government allocated an estimated £7 million (approximately $7.96 million) budget to the schools from 2015 to 2024.

Given the recent talks,
the group of cross-party MPs is looking to redirect this funding to other schools.

The recent decision came after Kearns asked Taiwan to play a more significant role in teaching Mandarin in the U.K.

as distrust over the Chinese Communist Party continues to grow.

Kearns, a member of the British House of Commons Foreign Affairs Committee,

proposed a Higher Education Bill amendment in June.

The amendment would allow British officials to close down Confucius Institutes

over concerns about academic freedom.
