Esol proof letter ?

Is it important for the ESOL letter written by the school to be stamped ? The school said they don't have a stamp and they have done lots of these sort of things so should be ok right ? Is this letter suitable ? many thanks http://i36.photobucket.com/albums/e22/nismohks88/ESOL1lettera_zps8cede84c.jp...

so if she goes on holiday for 3 - 6 months out of the uk. She will need to prove she has a life in the uk when she goes through immigration ??

how do the eco's check how many people are living in your house ?
My cousin used to live here but he still gets his bank statements etc here.
What things should he change his address or what ever to to make sure the eco dont think he still lives here ?
thanks
