Many thanks, everyone for your replies and good wishes on Myrna's behalf. Now I know this may seem like a daft question ... but I've often seen IELTS mentioned on this site, and wondered what exactly it stood for. Would someone care to enlighten me?

[Arthur Little]

Oh ... and also ESOL ... thanks.

ielts is the international english language testing system - 2 types Academic or General, tests a persons level of english, testing their reading, writing, speaking and listening skills. doctors and nurses from outside the EU have to take it (as well as others) , to work here. as my misses has 3 times.

esol is basic english course. and you can find places where much of the study material is based on the information found in the books to pass the life in the uk test,

so if your level of english is lower than esol 3 then you can take the course instead of the test.

'Life in the UK' test

You take the 'Life in the UK' test if you're applying to be a British citizen and your level of English is ESOL Entry 3 or above.

If your level of English is lower than ESOL Entry 3 and you wish to apply for naturalisation, you will need to attend combined English language (ESOL) and citizenship classes instead.
