Examples of our services include:

This residential tuition enables the flexibility of travel, making it ideal for busy clients whose lifestyle does not lend itself to attendance at a mainstream school.
- Short-term role – prior to transfer to a British public school or for a long school holiday period, we can provide an experienced tutor to support the educational needs of a child and ensure that they are academically prepared.
- Business English and TEFL Tuition – as each role is unique, our education consultants are always happy to discuss a client’s requirements, whether the tutoring need is for an adult or a child, long or short-term.
GUARDIAN SERVICE
For non-UK residents, under British law (the children’s acts 1980 & 1989) each child receiving a full time education (more than 12 weeks) must have a legally appointed Guardian present in the UK.
The Guardian duties, connected with the child’s stay at school, include:
- Representing the child with the school authorities in case of academic or pastoral issues
- At the start of the academic year, purchasing items for the child i.e. school uniform, books and equipment, name tags for clothing, bedding, telephone cards etc
- Assisting with travel arrangements for the child at the start / end of term, for ‘Exeat’ weekends and for half term holidays
- Updating and renewing legal documents such as visas
- Supervising the child’s finances
Front Row Education partner with an AEGIS accredited Guardianship company to ensure a first class service and are happy to discuss your requirements.
About Us
“I set up FRE in 2013 and since then I have worked hard to create the very best educational situation for the families and children I work with. I’m the first point of contact, and I’ll only ever take on a small number of families each year, getting to know the family personally so that we can ensure the placements are the best and most suitable. We want every child we place to thrive and excel and most of all, to be happy”
