Student Visa Valid - Travel allowed?

Hello,

My UK student visa (Tier 4) is valid till Jan 2015. However my course is over and I have started work in Europe, ( I have a work permit for the Netherlands.)
My question is - am I allowed to travel to the UK or do I require a tourist visa now to travel there?

Thanks!

If you are not returning to continue a course of study you should not be using a student visa to enter. That's what the rules say. However, given that you have a valid visa, it seems absurd to ignore that and apply for a visit visa to serve the same purpose. Your entry depends on how you react to any questions about the purpose of your visit.

Risky.
