Governors and Governess

Most selective schools require every international student to have a local guardian. We appoint vetted governors, host families and private governesses — a dedicated point of contact for the school and attentive, discreet pastoral care for your child.

HOW IT WORKS

Care that the school can rely on

01

Understanding your child

Character, language, faith, diet, interests and family expectations, so the match is personal rather than administrative.

02

Vetting & appointment

Enhanced references, home visits and safeguarding training for every governor and host family we appoint.

03

School liaison

We become the named guardian on school records, attending parents' evenings and handling day-to-day correspondence.

04

Exeats, holidays & travel

Weekends, half-terms and transfers arranged in advance, with supervision your child is comfortable with.

05

Academic and pastoral oversight

Reports read, tutoring arranged where needed, and early intervention if wellbeing or grades slip.

06

Reporting to parents

Regular written updates and immediate contact in any urgent situation, whatever the time zone.
