In our 2025 webinar series, we guide interested families through every stage – from the first questions about whether a British boarding school might be the right choice, to preparing for school visits in England, and understanding the qualifications available at British schools. We explain the structure and distinctive features of the academic programmes and which qualifications are best suited to different goals. With the help of engaging guest speakers, we also offer guidance for planning the next steps after graduation.
