During exeat weekends and holidays, if your child is not returning home when the boarding school is closed, they will need to stay with a host family.
We place our students with specially selected host families who are personally known to us and have undergone all necessary security checks to ensure the safety and well-being of our students.
We take great care to ensure that each student is matched with a host family where they will feel at home and treated as a family member. We ask our host families to include our students in outings and activities, and explain to students what to expect from their host families. We consider the relationships between the students and their host families to be a significant part of their life in the UK. Living with a family is an excellent way for international students to learn more about British culture and traditions and practise their conversational English skills.
We have a selection of caring host families in Kent, Surrey, East & West Sussex, Hampshire, and London. The host families take excellent care of our guardianship students attending schools in the area.
How to become one of our host families
Our host families welcome students to their homes when the boarding schools are closed.
They provide a secure and friendly home environment and genuinely care about our students' lives.
We are always looking for people interested in hosting students in our guardianship care who attend boarding schools in Kent, Surrey & Sussex.
If you are interested in this role, please get in touch with us by email at info@myguardians.co.uk or by completing the online form. We will then contact you to arrange a visit to your home and address any questions you may have.
