As guardians, our vision has always been to create an elite guardian service that far exceeds the expectations of parents and their children. In doing so we have established an excellent reputation among the many UK boarding schools with whom we work. We can offer guardianship to students in many areas of the UK. Unlike many other guardianship organisations, we are fully accredited by AEGIS (Association for the Education and Guardianship of International Students). This means our practises and processes have been thoroughly inspected and audited by this important organisation and we can therefore guarantee that we will act in your child’s best interest at all times. In 2013 we were also proud to be awarded Bronze Partner status by Child Safe International after a rigorous audit of our safeguarding and child protection standards. We are now very close to achieving Silver Partner status due to the improvements we have continued to make in our safeguarding standards since then. where we offer guardianship Scotland We have a Bright World Local Coordinator in each region - your Dollar Academy Fettes College child’s Bright World Buddy.
