School Search and Educational Consulting

Our education partners provide a suite of services that range from contained to very extended, created to meet the different needs of individual families. One service is designed to orient families in a new education system and provide them with sufficient information to effectively conduct a school search independently, for example; another is extended service which includes support through all aspects of a school search and check-in guidance after children have started school in the new location. Our partners also offer highly specialized support for children with Special Education Needs and can help with Preschool and early childhood education.

School Search Program

In some locations, the school search process can be particularly complex and may take a much longer period to source and secure. For example, an employee could have a child that has specific educational needs, who will be enrolling into their new school, mid-term.

Our School Search specialist has the expertise and knowledge to explain the educational systems in detail to parents of children moving overseas.

There are five packages available:

  • Education Consultancy
  • Education Counselling
  • General School Search
  • Premier School Search
  • Special Education Requirements
