At Eltive we know how important a child’s education is but also, as parents ourselves, we understand the concern in sending your child away to school. This is why we have a whole school programme, including School Tours, 3 levels of Guardianship services as detailed below, various Preparation Courses and Homestay Facilities (if they would rather not board) and most importantly, a close connection with many local independent schools.

Ad Hoc Guardianship
It is very important to have someone close by when your child is far away but some older, more confident young adults, minimum age 16, do not need constant contact and unnecessary expense.
This costs £150 per year for registration, forms need to be read, completed and signed. Eltive will then have all information and authority needed in the event of an emergency and for travel and holiday care arrangement requests. A disbursement of £300 is required on registering to be used in emergencies.
Included is one initial visit at the beginning of the year by an Eltive guardian who is then contactable 24/7 in an emergency, to be on hand and make any necessary arrangements. In this event a call out fee, hourly rate and expenses are chargeable. Eltive will organise all other services on request at an additional cost.
Full Guardianship
This service is available for all students, mandatory for under 14’s.
This costs £150 per year for registration plus £450 per term. A disbursement of £1000 is required on registering to be used for emergency and non-emergency expenses.
Included are two visits per term by an allocated guardian to check all is well. These will be conducted at school or at the boarding house. During these visits our guardian is available to talk through any worries the child might have and will do her best to remedy these issues as soon as possible, if not immediately. However academic issues are not the responsibility of the guardian in the Full service.
An Eltive guardian is contactable 24/7 in an emergency to be on hand and make any necessary arrangements. In this event a call out fee, hourly rate and expenses are chargeable. The child’s allocated guardian is contactable during office hours for all other issues and will be responsible for arranging the child’s airport transfers and holiday care, for which all costs will be invoiced termly in advance.
