Option 1- 1-2-1 Boarding school consultancy package
Whether you have two months, or two years before your planned start date for joining a boarding school, one of our expert team of consultants will work with you 1-2-1, taking you step-be-step through the process of choosing and applying to British boarding schools.
Via a series of video calls and personal email communication, our consultant will help you with choosing the right shortlist of boarding schools for your child, then assist you with booking school visits (virtual or in person) arranging the registration process, help you with preparing your child for entry tests and interviews, as well as guide you in making the final decision – accepting the right boarding school place.
By building a close working relationship with your expert Consultant, you will be able to move faster and with more confidence towards your goal of securing a place at the right boarding school for your child, so they will be happy and fulfil their potential.
To help you via our Boarding School Consultancy Package, we first need to get to know you and your child, so we can offer you focused and relevant advice. We do this by asking you to complete an online parent questionnaire which helps both you and us to establish exactly what the right school for your child looks like.
Building on this information, our Consultant will speak to you via video call to discuss up to 5 boarding schools which match what you are looking for. The outcome will be a list of schools that you are confident meet what you are looking for in the right school for your child.
This video call also enables you to get to know us and experience the benefits of working with one of our Consultants 1-2-1. You can then decide whether you wish to work with us on an on-going basis, holding your hand all the way through the 7-Step process, all the way through to accepting a place at the right boarding school.
Step One of accessing our Boarding School Consultancy Package is to invest in the Consult a Consultant Service. Once you and your Consultant have got to know one another, you’ll be able to discuss on-going support via our 1-2-1 package.
