Our School Placement Service is Unique, like your Child.

With thousands of very capable students applying to UK boarding schools every year competition for places is fierce. It is very important you are aware of all your child’s schooling options and that your child’s application stands out.

We are experts on finding and placing UK and international students into UK Boarding Schools.

WBS is made of up of two very important departments and this allows WBS to offer you two options on how we can work together to find the perfect school for your child:

The School Search and The School Placement

As we are a small, boutique consultancy we work on a quality rather than quantity basis. The families we work with receive our undivided attention.  Our dedicated team regularly travel between England and our clients to work together in sync with parents and their children.

Due to the high demand we receive, we must ask that you provide as much information on the initial enquiry form as possible.

If your child is approaching 9 or 10 years old and you would like them to apply to a top boys only or girls only school then please click here.

Why choose us?

We don’t believe in presenting a child to schools using only a registration form and school report, that is only one side of every child’s story, which is why we created Meet Me

We ‘actually’ visit all the schools we work with

Our system is used by schools to find students looking for last-minute places

We believe Meet Me avoids unnecessary stress and disappointment

We invest quality time getting to know our clients’ children

We have over a decade of experience placing students in top boarding schools

We are a boutique business; passionate about what we do

We keep up to date with all new developments in schools due to the fact we visit them regularly with clients

We are extremely well connected with the schools

We work with highly selective schools, mixed ability schools, specialist schools and international study centres

Our Student Profile System – Meet Me is the only one of its kind recognised by British boarding schools

The WBS Student Profiling System – Meet Me, is the first of its kind and the only profiling system recognised by the UK boarding schools.  Our Student Profiles provide schools with an in depth understanding of each child’s individuality and capabilities

We specifically designed the system to support overseas students’ applications to UK boarding schools.

(Please note that you must be able to converse well in English to use Meet Me as you will be dealing directly with schools – This does not apply to WBS School Placement clients.)

Often, students applying from overseas get very little opportunity to visit schools.  They also tend to come from large schools where the Head doesn’t know them well and therefore references provided can be quite basic.

We also appreciate how much money you spend on your children’s extracurricular hobbies and interests. We wanted to give you a way of showcasing that investment to find your child the perfect school here in the UK.

Benefits to your child

• Whilst building their Student Profile your child will naturally prepare for their interviews with the schools
• Your child will only need to take entrance tests at schools that have already learned so much about them and have expressed a positive interest in them
• Getting your child involved in the way they are presented to schools gives them a sense of ownership and responsibility – two great learning curves
• A WBS Student profile is an excellent first step towards understanding what is expected of you as a student in a UK boarding school
