My Guardians is located near Sevenoaks, a market town situated in the countryside of West Kent, about 21.5 miles south-east of the centre of London.
The town is home to Knole, an English country house surrounded by a 1,000-acre deer park and to The Vine cricket ground - the oldest in England. There is a wide variety of historic properties within a short distance from the centre and many beautiful gardens to visit.
There are a number of independent educational establishments in the town, including Sevenoaks School, a coeducational day and boarding school for pupils aged 11‑18. Founded in 1432, Sevenoaks provides academic excellence with a strong pastoral and co-curricular emphasis and a global dimension inspired by the International Baccalaureate. Half an hour from Central London and from Gatwick International Airport, it is situated on an attractive 100-acre campus adjoining Knole Park. The Sunday Times recently ranked Sevenoaks as the Independent Secondary School of the Year, with superb GCSE and IB results, and was described as ‘outstanding’ in the Ofsted Boarding inspection 2009.
Sevenoaks was one of the first schools in the world (since June 1978) to offer the IB and now we have over 30 years of experience teaching it.
The IB Diploma Programme is designed as an academically challenging and balanced programme of education with final examinations that prepares students, normally aged 16 to 19, for success at university and life beyond. The programme is normally taught over two years and has gained recognition and respect from the world’s leading universities.
