Why is Kitt McArthur Guardianship Unique?

A bespoke and personal approach to guardianship for each of our students
A service dedicated to offering parents and students all the support they need while studying in the UK
Academic guidance and support for your son or daugther at all stages of their education
We understand the boarding school system in the UK with strong relationships in the schools we work alongside
We provide host families for a warm and welcoming 'home away from home' for your son or daughter

As a family run company we focus on your child as an individual.


We are a bespoke, family run Guardianship company providing a personal service to our students and families.

As trained teachers, we will take an interest in your child’s academic life as well as their pastoral care and focus on your child as an individual.

We pride ourselves on being approachable and responsive to the needs of our students and parents – we understand that as a parent you are a long way from the UK and need to know your child is supported at all times. We use Whatsapp, Wechat and emails to keep in regular contact with you and your child.

We will get to know your son or daughter by visiting them in school regularly and make sure, through Zoom, that they already know us before they even arrive in the UK. We offer help, guidance and support as you prepare for your child to start their schooling here. 

We will help them settle in at school on arrival, if you are not able to travel with them at the start of their adventure. We will meet them at the airport if necessary, or make arrangements for them to get to school and make sure they have everything they need. This includes school uniform and sports kit, books, mobile phones, sports equipment and bank accounts as well as any other practical matters. We can organise specialist musician hire of large musical instruments, such as a harp or double bass.
We keep in contact with your son or daughter throughout the term and the people who are most important to them in school – their house parents, matrons and pastoral staff.

We live near to the schools we work within, which means we are always on hand in case of emergency. We organise your child's travel to and from school including university open days, school visits, dental and doctor appointments. we communicate effectively with school at all times to ensure they are always travelling safely.

We will visit your child at least twice every term and update you on how they are getting on. We attend Rugby matches, concerts or any other school activities your child is involved in to cheer them along!

We will organise for them to stay with one of our wonderful host families in a safe and caring environment, making a match based on the student’s interests, age and needs.

As trained teachers, we can offer you guidance and support on all educational matters, including school exams and revision, GCSE and A level choice, organise tuition and extra support if your child needs this and also answer all questions about the UK independent education system as your child progresses through it. This is included in our guardianship.

In addition we offer full academic mentoring, a University Advisory Service and we can also attend parent’s meetings on your behalf.
