The Full Service includes; Initial Assessment, Acceptance, Learner Profile Assessment, School Shortlist, Selection Process, Support, Appeals.

Initial Assessment
Whether through direct contact with families via the website, through The English Education Guaranteed recruitment events or through referrals from our referral partners across the world, The English Education Guaranteed will follow up with a free initial twenty-minute assessment call. This call will be to assess the outline suitability of a potential applicant and it will be followed up by the immediate collation of school reports and, if deemed necessary, appropriate academic assessment. A decision will be made as to whether the child is to be accepted as a client of The English Education Guaranteed within five working days of the initial meeting or conference call, dependent upon receipt of relevant paperwork from the client.

Acceptance
If a child is accepted as a client of The English Education Guaranteed, the family will sign a contract and pay the required fee, on the understanding that their child will be placed at one of the Guaranteed Placement member schools within an agreed timescale. A consultant will follow up with a further forty-five minute video conference call to find out much more about the child, their interests, their potential; they will sit The English Education’s online learner profile assessment, the APT (Academic Profiling Test) and will record a short video interview.

Academic Profiling Test (APT)
Successful students undertake our Academic Profiling Test, specifically designed to meet the needs of schools and designed by a leading expert in the field of pupil assessment. The results of this assessment and other details, including a brief video of an interview with the applicant and a report on their interests and aptitudes, will be shared with the Registrar / admissions staff at longlisted member schools – schools will be asked to decide as to whether they wish to take the application forward within forty-eight hours of receipt. The English Education will only place a member school on this longlist when the school has discussed the profile of an applicant, and has a place available for the agreed entry point and has expressed a willingness to consider the application.

School Shortlist
The consultant will create a list of up to five of the most suitable member schools and, after explanation, consideration and further communication with parents, a shortlist of two or three schools will be agreed, to which application will be encouraged.

Selection Process
Decisions will then be made about taking applications forward. Advice and support will be given about timescales and procedure for application, with communication between school and parents being managed by The English Education Guaranteed team . If interviews are required at the school(s), parents will be offered ‘guided support’ as an optional extra, or they can chose to visit the schools unaccompanied.

Support
The English Education Guaranteed will manage the process through to acceptance. The English Education Guaranteed will offer parents various levels of ancillary services, such as interview practice, visa, guardianship and tutor support.

Appeals
We will communicate with the school where your child has been refused placement after application. There is no guarantee that any appeal will be successful. We will review your original application and your feedback.
