Student Services Fees regulatory change

Earlier this year, the Minister of Education agreed that student services fees will be regulated through funding mechanisms instead of through Ministerial Directive from 2023 onwards.

To finalise this change, the Minister has now revoked the existing “Ministerial Direction on Compulsory Student Services Fees for 2019”, effective from 1 January 2023. The revocation notice is available here:

This changes the form the regulations take but does not have any direct impact on TEOs’ responsibilities. Updated guidance for TEOs on student services fees can be found at Student services fees
