For students requiring assistance with transport and host family, a £500 expenses fund will be charged on application. This expenses fund covers host family stays, taxi travel, mileage for host families, and mileage for our Local Coordinators when visiting or picking up our students. It can also be used in an emergency to offer assistance at airports for travel and accommodation. A smaller emergency fund of £200 will be requested for those not requiring routine stays or travel.

What makes Bright World unique is our Emergency Services. We always have at least one Duty Manager on the 24/7 emergency phone and email service during waking hours.

All Duty Managers have instant access to our online systems so they can easily track the whereabouts and crucial contact details for our students and associated host families, house parents, and drivers.

If you are not intending to use our host family or travel service then we can reduce the expenses fund to suit your needs. This will considerably reduce UK guardianship costs. James manages our student and parent finances and will ensure that your fees and disbursements account is kept up to date.

why choose Bright World Guardianships?

null

Bright World is one of the UK's leading Guardianship Organisations and has placed thousands of students into UK boarding schools since its foundation. Bright World operates from its Head Office in Sussex, UK, and has over 30 local coordinators across the UK.

With over 25 years of experience working with students and host families, we are particularly proud of our ability to match students with host families successfully. We listen to parents when they enrol and throughout their guardianship stay and we also listen to students. By gaining information on their likes and dislikes, food preferences, and looking at their age and the profile of the host family, we consistently get it right.

Unlike many other guardianship organisations, we are proud to have AEGIS Gold Standard Accreditation, meaning our practises and processes have been thoroughly inspected and audited, enabling us to guarantee parents that we will act in your child’s best interests at all times and that students will receive the very highest standard of care under our guardianship.
