7. GUARDIANS FOR OVERSEAS PUPILS
Whilst communication with parents living overseas is much more straightforward than it once was, it is a condition of entry to St Andrew’s Prep that every pupil whose parents are resident abroad has a suitable guardian living in this country. They can be friends, relatives, or nominated friends of an overseas family. Where parents find it difficult to nominate a relative or good acquaintance for this purpose, admissions can provide suggestions of reliable local guardianship agencies approved by AEGIS (Association for the Education and Guardianship of International Students: www.aegisuk.net). The final choice of a guardian is the responsibility of the parents. More information, including when a child needs to stay with guardians, can be found within the Guardian Policy.
