OUR UK TEAM
Welcome to Belgravia Guardians. We thoroughly enjoy catching up with parents, and we love to meet new families too. Our team works night and day to ensure that all students are cared for from the moment they embark on their journey, to the time they arrive home. There is always someone at the end of a phone, and we always welcome a call, message or update to hear about how the student and the whole family is getting on.
Whether it's seeking advice, signing important documents, organising a birthday treat or outing, or simply a conversation and a cup of tea to chat about how your child is doing, we are on hand to answer any questions you have.
Belgravia combines global education with local relationships. Our UK team is spread around the country to ensure that every area is connected and that we are in close proximity to our schools and host families. Our Area Parents are always on call to assist each student throughout the year.
An Area Parent is a bridge between the student, the parent, and head office, to make sure that communication is always quick and efficient, and that each child is cared for with the highest standards. An Area Parent may visit a school for a whole range of reasons, perhaps to attend parents evening, a formal school occasion, or simply just to visit a student and check on their personal wellbeing to ensure that all of their needs are being met.
