Why choose us?

Choosing the right guardianship service for your child in the UK is crucial. Here are six major competitive advantages that English Guardian (EG) offers to parents and pupils:

AEGIS accreditation

When registering your child at schools in the UK, you will likely encounter AEGIS (Association for the Education and Guardianship of International Students). Most schools recommend working with AEGIS-accredited guardianship companies, which adhere to strict legislative requirements and regulatory standards. By choosing an AEGIS-accredited guardianship company like English Guardian, you can rest assured that your child is in safe hands.

Years of experience

Since our foundation in 2006, we have helped hundreds of children relocate to the UK and adapt to school life. Our extensive experience allows us to deliver expert advice and find effective solutions, even in the most challenging situations. We have likely encountered and resolved issues similar to those you might face. Over the years, we have established partnerships with schools across the UK and built close working relationships with host families, drivers, doctors and others to ensure your child’s life in the UK is as comfortable as possible.

24/7 availability in case of emergencies

Even the most independent and diligent student may need prompt, in-person help. Whether it’s a loss of documents, a flight delay or a sudden illness, having a guardian available any time is crucial. Our core principle is to offer personalised, immediate support to every child, ensuring they receive the help they need whenever they need it.

Convenient location

With a base in London and a wide network of host families throughout the UK, we can resolve issues promptly and efficiently. We can quickly reach schools or students in emergencies and attend parent-teacher meetings. We cover all the UK.

Support in your language

Our guardians are fluent in English, Chinese, Mandarin, Spanish and Russian. Even if you do not speak English, we provide reliable support and translate all school correspondence, considering cultural differences between the UK and home countries.

Integrated services

In addition to guardianship, we offer a range of additional services, including student visa services, academic tuition, assistance with school or university applications and summer language courses. We have established reliable working relationships with companies dealing with UK immigration, real estate, investment management and more.

At English Guardian, we are committed to providing comprehensive support to ensure your child’s well-being and success in the UK.
