• When a US-based family relocated to the UK for work, timing was critical. Our team coordinated school visits during the school spring break while our travel and estates team handled the logistics and housing. The result? Father and son began their new chapters on the same day.
• With just two months’ notice, a family relocating from India to the UK needed urgent support to prepare their child for a new academic and cultural environment. Our team arranged a taster week at their new school and secured a place at a UK summer camp focused on language development. The result? A confident, well-prepared student ready to thrive in their school.
