YES Guardians Statement of Aims, Principles and Practice
.At YES Guardians we pride ourselves in offering an excellent personalised care package for international students who are studying in the UK.
We appreciate that studying away from your family maybe difficult and we are here to ensure our mission statement happiness, safety and care for all of our students is achieved, its these core foundations that will enable the students to flourish.
YES Guardians are a friendly family run business offering the extra personal touch, with children of school age ourselves, we pride ourselves on offering individualised care packages for every one of our students whether that be a 24/7 emergency guardianship service for an independent student to a full home from home package hosting students in our home and living as part of our family unit.
We have 10+ years’ experience in hosting international students from all over the world. We are very proud of our catalogue of extensive positive feedback from our students and are always committed to their welfare and making sure their stay is a fun, positive and enriching experience. We work very closely with our students and their families to ensure that personal needs are met to the highest standards.
We will always go the extra mile for our students whether that’s organising birthday celebrations or celebrating a special cultural occasion such as Chinese New Year. We have a YES families WhatsApp group that all our students are invited to join in for general chit chat, support or guidance in whatever is required.
The majority of UK boarding schools, colleges and universities admitting under 18s require all overseas pupils to have a UK guardian. A guardian should be a responsible adult living in the UK who can be there in an emergency situation to act on behalf of parents, but the need for a Guardian for over 18’s is equally as important.
For those parents who do not have a family friend to act as guardian, then they have the opportunity of choosing an AEGIS accredited UK Guardianship Organisation to act in Loco Parentis. At YES Guardians we are passionate about providing the highest possible level of service therefore we pride ourselves on being fully AEGIS accredited.
This not only satisfies the Boarding School requirements but also the UK Visa requirements and keeps international students safe while they are not in school and are unaccompanied.
We provide a trustworthy service from experienced professionals. We have vast experience of working with international students and we believe we can provide them with an excellent service to ensure they reach their full potential. We are highly trained in Child Protection and Safeguarding to ensure the upmost safety to our students. We are proud to give parents the peace of mind and security in the knowledge that there is someone always there to give them a helping hand.
