Guardianship Services

GUARDIANSHIP SERVICES

Shell Education can offer a full service from placing a child in the best suitable school to undertaking all guardianship services. 

Shell Education provides professional, friendly, efficient and reliable service for overseas students studying in the UK. 

The majority of UK boarding schools require an international  student to have a UK educational guardian. A guardian should be a responsible adult living in the UK who can provide full support to the student on behalf of their parents. For those parents who do not have a family friend to act as guardian, then they have the opportunity of choosing UK Guardianship Organisation to act as an education guardian for their children. This not only satisfies the boarding schools’ requirements, but also the UK Visa and Immigration guidelines and keeps international students safe while they are not in school and are unaccompanied.


As a small Guardianship agency we pride ourselves on the personal service we offer. We make sure our students know us well and feel supported and secure.  Our main aim is to ensure all students have a safe and enjoyable time in the UK, while reaching their full academic potential.

We care about the welfare of every student and assist them in becoming independent young adults.

SHELL EDUCATION has AEGIS Accreditation. 

AEGIS is the only independent body in the UK that puts guardianship organisations through a rigorous inspection process.

This means that all AEGIS accredited guardianship organisations have passed a full inspection of their care of students and their business practices, so you can be sure your child will be in safe hands.
