Frequently Asked

Questions, answered plainly

A few of the questions families ask most often — about shortlisting, timelines, entrance exams, and how we work. If yours isn't here, a consultation is the best place to ask it.

When should we begin?

The earlier the better — many families begin two or more years before entry, as registration for popular schools closes well in advance. That said, we take families on at later stages too; the plan is simply built to fit the time available.

Who are the advisers?

Each adviser has years of experience inside UK boarding-school admissions — they know the schools, their houses, and the entrance process, and work one-to-one with your family throughout.

Do you guarantee a place?

No reputable consultancy can. We guarantee careful judgement, thorough preparation, and honest counsel; the decision rests with each school. Our role is to give your child the strongest, calmest possible run at the right ones.

How is guidance delivered?

Most guidance is one-to-one over video, with materials and feedback in writing between sessions. In-person meetings in Dubai can be arranged for some engagements.

How do we start?

With a private consultation. We get to know your child — their profile, character and interests — and set out honestly how we can help, before any commitment.
