Host Families
FOR STUDENTS TO FULFIL THEIR POTENTIAL – BE THAT WINNING A PLACE IN AN ELITE SENIOR SCHOOL / UNIVERITY, THRIVING IN MUSIC AND ARTS, BECOMING A CHAMPION IN SPORTS OR MATHEMATICS, OR ACHIEVING EXCELLENT EXAM RESULTS, THEY REQUIRE AN OUTSTANDING LEVEL OF OUT OF SCHOOL SUPPORT TO GUIDE AND MOTIVATE THEM.
THERE IS NO BETTER WAY TO ACHIEVE THIS THAN BY STAYING WITH ONE OF OUR HOST FAMILIES.
WHY USE A HOST FAMILY
Students at traditional British boarding schools typically spend up to 6 weeks out of school during an academic year (e.g. half-terms and weekend exeats).
Whilst some of our students travel back home or stay with friends/family in the UK, many of our students chose to stay with a host family.
Our host families provide students with a home away from home and a place to escape the stresses of school life.

OUR HOST FAMILIES ARE DIFFERENT
It is the quality of our host families that makes us different. Not only do they offer superior accommodation and food, our host families have an in-depth knowledge of the independent education sector, and they go the extra mile to ensure that your child is happy, safe, motivated… and thriving.
Students are encouraged to get involved in family life as much as possible. Amongst other things, this helps them to better integrate, improve their English and further learn about British culture and western values.
OUR HOST FAMILY LOCATIONS
Our host families are spread across the Midlands and the South of England.
