Big announcement (that came out in The Sunday Times this morning): Lambda School is expanding to the UK in 2019.

@ondrejzemek Is that possible in the Czech Republic? -
Should be. You might however need a consent of parents in some cases
-
Even if all students are above the age of 18?
-
Then you should not need the permission. However, there might be some regulatory restrictions regarding the method of payment for the tuition.
-
It means that it would be hard to create a legal framework in which employee sends part of its income to LambdaSchool and is easily enforceable?
-
yes and no. its pretty easy to create a contract which will stipulate all the terms. but how will you make someone provide you information about his salary without his consent/how will you know the person is not getting more and should start repaying tuition w/o state authority?
-
Access to tax returns is the key
-
that is how it works with student loans in the UK. but they are provided by the state authority. what would happen if the student recalls the consent with processing of personal data for instance, towards the tax authority? do u use contractual penalties for these situations?

In Australia, public assistance for education (HECS-HELP loans) works exactly like this, so you'd find a public that's already familiar with the model. There's a limit to how much students can borrow. https://www.studyassist.gov.au/help-loans-and-csps/hecs-help …

Australia has a great model. Other countries should emulate it.
-
I didn't study here, but I hear some people have complaints. However, it's so much better than the US model it's not even funny.
-
It's more that the government has been chipping away at it the last few years. Anyway, I'd definitely be on board to teach if Lambda School opens up a branch in Australia!

Right, thanks.
