We accompany the family to visit schools in the UK. We assist them with everything from registration through to the acceptance of an offer. We then help with the purchase of a new school uniform and finding a suitable guardian family. When the child has been at the school for one term we visit with them to see how they are getting on. From that point, we will always be there for the student to contact if they have any problems.
The parents will have WBS and their child's guardian family to rely upon and keep their child safe, happy and healthy.
PLACE – Working with all Schools
WBS are not Agents. We do not work with a select number of schools that pay us large commissions. We work for you. We create your child’s WBS Student Profile and deliver it to all suitable schools because we believe that by casting out our net we can confidently say we did everything we could to find the perfect fit school for your child.
PLACE - The Schools are the Experts
We know UK boarding schools. We know the model students they are looking for. We have visited the schools. We have experienced the ambiance within them and we have met their teachers, Heads, House Parents and their students, but how can we possibly know the schools better than they know themselves. Therefore, our system allows the schools to come to us based on what they have learned about your child from their profile. We will always introduce you to every school that contacts us and then we will work with you to shortlist them based on our own experience of the schools.
PLACE - School Visits
As a WBS School Placement client you will benefit from accompanied visits to your shortlisted schools. You can't beat a good old fashioned face to face introduction, especially when every school we visit is your child's potential new school. It is important to us that the school know who they can communicate with in your absence should your child have any issues. Even after we have placed your child we will still be there to support them.
PLACE - The New School
We have planned, we have presented, we have considered all our options; we have shortlisted and we have visited and now we have discussed. We can confidently say that your child's new school is somewhere they can grow into; a family unit where everyone learns and develops; a flexible space for personal growth and exploration; a place where new friends can be made; extracurricular activities are abundant and success is celebrated. You can sleep easy knowing you have done everything you can to ensure your child will be starting at the best fit school for them (with a little help from us of course!).
