About Us

GUIDED BY THE PRINCIPLE “A HAPPY STUDENT IS A SUCCESSFUL STUDENT”, YOUR CHILD’S WELFARE IS AT THE CORE OF EVERYTHING WE DO AS EDUCATION GUARDIANS.

OUR STUDENTS ARE ENCOURAGED TO MAKE THE MOST OF THEIR EXPERIENCE IN THE UK, ALLOWING THEM TO REACH THEIR FULL POTENTIAL.

WHO WE ARE

Great British Guardians was established by Kathy and Stephen Arnott in 2003. Their motivation for setting up the company was in response to a gap in the market for quality educational guardianship services.

They are both passionate champions of education and take enormous pleasure from guiding and instructing children. Contact Stephen and Kathy to find out more about their Educational Guardianship services.

WHO WE WORK WITH

Great British Guardians support children from the age of 10 to 18. Over the past two decades we have supported children from over 30 different countries, such as France, Russia, Bulgaria, Japan, Hong Kong, and mainland China.

Our host families can support individual children or a family of children.

HOW WE OPERATE

Great British Guardians has grown significantly since the company was founded. However, Stephen & Kathy continue to operate it as a family business where all services can be tailored to meet the exact needs of each student and parent.

As the educational guardian, Stephen & Kathy retain overall responsibility for every student.

Depending on a student’s requirements, they will appoint an experienced host family to accommodate the student when he/she not at school.
