Guardianship: Care and Safety for Your Child Far from HomeSending a minor child to study abroad is a serious and responsible step. Beyond academic matters, the top priorities become safety, well-being, and legal protection.
Most prestigious schools in the UK, USA, and Europe require international students to have an official guardian. This is not just a formality — it is a legal requirement and a guarantee that your child will have a reliable representative on-site.
We offer a professional service for selecting accredited guardians who will become your child’s trusted contact and support system, ensuring their comfort, security, and 24/7 care.
The Role and Responsibilities of Our Guardian:Our guardian is not just an emergency contact. They are a personal mentor who takes full care of the student’s well-being.1. Official Legal RepresentationThe guardian acts as the child’s legal representative in the host country. This gives them the right to:
- Sign official documents on behalf of the parents (with their consent)
- Represent the child’s interests at the educational institution
- Consent to emergency medical treatment, acting in the best interests of the child
- Communicate with government and immigration authorities when needed
2. Academic Support and Communication with the SchoolThe guardian is actively involved in the student’s academic life, ensuring effective communication between you and the school:
- Attends parent-teacher meetings and school events on your behalf
- Monitors the child’s academic performance and social adaptation
- Helps resolve any issues with teachers and administration
- Provides regular, detailed reports on the student’s progress and overall well-being
3. Daily Life Support and Leisure OrganizationEven the best boarding schools have holidays and long exeat weekends, during which the campus closes. The guardian handles all practical matters:
- Arranges accommodation with carefully vetted and welcoming host families during holidays
- Assists with everyday needs, from opening a bank account to visiting a doctor
- Acts as a 24/7 emergency contact in case of unforeseen situations
Our Guarantees — Your Peace of Mind:- Only accredited professionals: We work exclusively with guardians and agencies who have passed strict vetting and are accredited by leading organizations, such as AEGIS (The Association for the Education and Guardianship of International Students) in the UK.
- Safety checks: All guardians and host families undergo mandatory background checks to ensure reliability (e.g., DBS check in the UK).
- Geographical proximity: We select a guardian who lives reasonably close to the school to ensure a fast response in any situation.
