My Guardians

Welcome to My Guardians: Personalised Support for International Students in UK Boarding Schools

My Guardians provides trusted educational consultancy and guardianship services for overseas families choosing British boarding schools.  With over 30 years of experience and a base in Kent—close to many leading schools and London’s international airports—we offer practical, reliable support throughout each student’s journey.

We help parents select the right school, manage admissions, and ensure their children settle smoothly into UK boarding life.  As guardians, we act as the students’ UK point of care: checking in regularly at school, attending Parents’ Evenings on behalf of families abroad, and providing safe, welcoming arrangements during exeat weekends and holidays.

Founded by Irina in 1993, My Guardians is intentionally small and personal.  Our team is chosen for their professionalism, warmth, and commitment.  We get to know each student individually, supporting both their academic progress and emotional well‑being.  Many families stay with us for years, often entrusting younger siblings to our care.

We are proud Gold Standard members of AEGIS, reflecting our strong safeguarding practices and high standards of communication and care.

AEGIS Inspection Feedback (June 2021): “A highly personalised service, very highly rated by students, families and schools. Strong and regular communication is at the heart of all that it does.” — Vivien Sergeant, Lead Inspector

My Guardians welcomes students from around the world and provides the steady, thoughtful support that helps them feel at home and flourish in their new environment.
