UK guardianships
for international students

A boutique family company

I’m Mark London, the founder of London Education Guardians. My wife, Anastasia, and I have between us over 30 years’ experience of the UK’s independent schools sector, and a deep understanding of the needs of international boarding students and their families.

What is an education Guardian and why do you need one?

Studying in the UK offers international students a world-class education and valuable cultural experiences. However, for students under the age of 18, it is a legal and practical requirement to have a responsible adult in the UK to provide support and guidance. This is where an education guardian plays a vital role.

Legal and School Requirements
Many UK schools and colleges require international students to have a guardian to ensure their welfare while studying away from home. Guardians act as a responsible adult in the absence of parents, providing reassurance to both schools and families.
