Role of the guardian

We make our guardians' time and resources available for children and parents whenever needed.

GUARDIANSHIP

First-hand experience of the private education system

EDUCATIONAL GUARDIANS

An educational guardian is usually an office-based guardian, employed by the company, who visits your child at school, makes arrangements with and communicates to schools in your place, and arranges homestay with a host family for holidays and short breaks.

Educated to a minimum of degree level and very experienced in the school and university sector, our guardians offer children not only affection, but an expertise in a wide range of fields. Needless to say, every guardian undergoes vigilant child safeguarding training and qualifies in providing first aid.

ROLE OF THE GUARDIAN

Exceptional is the only standard we know

BOARDING SCHOOLS

The guardian will help with any arrangements to prepare for the school year from completing all forms and making subject choices.Our guardians will visit your child at school, attend parents’ evenings and sport events, sign documents and grant permissions on your behalf, send off school reports to translate if required, arrange access to emergency money and bank accounts, organize home stay during holidays and additional tuition.

DAY SCHOOLS

Guardianship in day schools is available for both families who are relocating to the UK and would like educational guardians to help them while settling down, and to the families who wish for their children to study at a day school and live with a host family.Guardians will help in preparing children for school if required, make all necessary purchases, and will look after their academic development.

UNIVERSITIES

Although guardianship is not required for students over the age of 18, the support and advice of a dedicated professional can help a student adapt to a new environment. Guardians can alleviate your worries when facing the unknown: local laws, university rules, flat rental practices, access to health services, and other important provisions of adult life. Carfax Guardians will provide young people with recourse to extra help and advice while they are learning to live independently.
