IDP Education’s revenues peak when a maximum number of their core clients (i.e. IELTS test-
takers) fail their IELTS exams and are required to re-sit these exams to achieve their required
scores. IELTS test-takers must advise IELTS of the intended use of their Test Report Form as a
mandatory condition of enrolment (see section 4.4). Using simple Google searches, any IELTS
staff member can determine the score required by each IELTS test-taker. They may also refer to
IELTS’s database. IELTS scores required for immigration purposes for work/residency visa classes
for Canada, Australia and Britain are common knowledge among IELTS’s academic staff.
