UKGuardianship

在這個人人都追捧 AI、科技不斷為生活帶來便利的年代，線上會議和各式各樣的社交平台，的確打破了人與人之間的距離；但與此同時，面對面的交流反而變得更難能可貴。你開始衡量，究竟什麼樣的人，才值得你花時間親身見上一面。

上星期，我有幸參加了 Brighter Future Forum 3.0（BFF 3.0）。活動匯聚了學校代表、教育顧問、導師及不同教育工作者，讓大家從不同角度交流對教育發展與挑戰的看法。

首先，活動選址本身已令人印象深刻。論壇在倫敦著名的North London Collegiate School (NLCS) 女子學校舉行，這並非一般人能隨意參觀的校園。能夠促成這次活動，其中一位主辦人 Susan（同時也是 UKG 創辦人及董事）功不可沒。她本身是該校校友，這次更邀請了同樣畢業於該校的大女兒，一同分享如何尊重孩子，以及在教育路上如何彼此聆聽和理解。

單從這個安排，我再次感受到「人際關係」的重要性。
作為教育監護人，我平日主要與學生、家長及學校接觸。這次論壇讓我有機會與不同教育工作者交流，從更多元的角度了解教育行業。

論壇最令我深刻的，不只是台上的分享，而是台下的交流。

我認為 Brighter Future Forum 的價值，正正在於建立一個讓教育界不同持份者互相交流和學習的平台。教育從來不是單靠某一個人或機構完成，而是需要整個教育生態圈共同合作。

離開論壇時，我帶走的不只是名片，更是新的想法、新的視野，以及對教育同工們更深的認識與尊重。

感謝主辦團隊用心籌辦這個有意義的平台，也期待未來有更多跨界別交流的機會。

在這個講求速度和效率的年代，科技把大家拉回同一起跑線，但真正讓人脫穎而出的，往往仍然是人與人之間的關係。

作為監護人公司，我們也一直鼓勵學生建立良好的人際關係，無論是與父母、老師、宿管、同學，還是監護人。

這些關係都需要時間和心思經營，但當你願意投入，你會發現自己看事情的角度、處理問題的方式，甚至未來能走的路，都會變得不一樣。

In an era where AI and technology are transforming the way we live, online meetings and social media have undoubtedly made it easier to connect with people across the world. Yet, at the same time, genuine face-to-face interactions have become more valuable than ever. We are becoming more selective about who we invest our time in meeting, and which conversations are truly worth having.

Last week, I had the privilege of attending Brighter Future Forum 3.0 (BFF 3.0), an event that brought together school representatives, education consultants, tutors, guardians and other professionals from across the education sector. It was a wonderful opportunity to exchange ideas and gain insights into the opportunities and challenges facing education today.

The venue itself was remarkable. The forum was hosted at North London Collegiate School (NLCS), one of London's most prestigious independent schools. This was made possible in part by one of the event organisers, Susan, who is both an alumna of the school and the founder and director of UK Guardianship. She was joined by her eldest daughter, also an alumna, for a thoughtful discussion on respecting children and the importance of listening to one another throughout the educational journey.

Even before the programme began, I was reminded of the power of relationships. Opportunities like this are often built on trust, connections and shared values developed over many years.

What impressed me most was not only the presentations on stage, but also the conversations taking place off stage.

To me, the true value of Brighter Future Forum lies in creating a platform where different stakeholders in education can learn from one another. Education is never the work of a single individual or organisation. It requires collaboration across an entire ecosystem of people who care about students' development.

Thank you to the organising team for creating such a meaningful event. I look forward to seeing more opportunities for cross-sector collaboration in the future.

As a guardianship organisation, we also encourage students to build strong relationships with their parents, teachers, house parents, classmates and, of course, their guardians. These relationships take time, effort and genuine care to develop, but once established, they can shape not only opportunities, but also the way we approach life itself.

正當英國的A-Level 公開考試進行得如火如荼之際，最近有一則英國教育界的消息，很值得和大家分享。

上星期，Pearson Edexcel A-Level 數學考試結束後，不少學生在社交媒體上表示試卷難度比往年高得多。隨後，有學生發起聯署（petition），短時間內便獲得超過 20,000 人支持，要求相關部門檢視試卷難度及評分安排。

這則新聞最值得家長和同學關注的，未必是試卷究竟有多難，而是學生們選擇了如何表達自己的想法。 在英國教育文化中，學生被鼓勵以理性、尊重和負責任的方式表達意見。當他們認為某件事情值得討論時，會透過聯署、正式反映意見或公開討論等渠道發聲，而不是單純抱怨或逃避問題。

無論最終結果如何，這些學生都示範了一個重要能力：勇於表達自己的感受，同時懂得透過合適的方法爭取自己的訴求。 這也是我們希望同學們在英國學習期間能夠培養的重要素質之一。

祝福所有正在應考的同學一切順利，發揮最佳水平！🍀

As the A-Level examination season continues across the UK, a recent story from the education sector caught our attention and is worth sharing with parents and students alike.

Last week, following the Pearson Edexcel A-Level Mathematics examination, many students took to social media to express their concerns that the paper was significantly more challenging than in previous years. Shortly afterwards, a student-led petition was launched, gaining more than 20,000 signatures in a short period of time and calling for the relevant authorities to review the paper's difficulty and grading arrangements.

What makes this story interesting is not necessarily how difficult the examination was, but how the students chose to respond.

In the UK education system, students are encouraged to express their views in a rational, respectful and responsible manner. When they feel that an issue deserves attention, they are taught to raise concerns through appropriate channels, such as petitions, formal feedback and public discussion, rather than simply complaining or avoiding the challenge.

Whatever the final outcome may be, these students have demonstrated an important life skill: having the confidence to express their feelings while also understanding how to advocate for themselves in a constructive and respectful way.

This is one of the valuable qualities we hope all students will develop during their time studying in the UK.

We wish all students the very best in their examinations and hope their hard work will be rewarded. 🍀

可惜了，在這個科技太發達的年代，為了保護學生的私隱，我們不能隨便分享同學們的「廬山真面目」。

幸好，作為監護人的我們並不怕「拋頭露面」，所以今天可以和大家分享一個溫暖的小故事。

5月29日下午，我們的 Toby 老師特地前往劍橋，出席其中一位韓國學生 Patrick 的年度頒獎典禮（Prize Ceremony）。

每年5月至6月，英國不少學校都會舉行年度頒獎典禮，表揚在學業、藝術、體育或其他領域表現優秀的學生。能夠站上台領獎，對學生來說是一份肯定；對家長來說，更是一份驕傲。

Patrick 的父母身在韓國。雖然很想親身到英國見證兒子的成長時刻，但礙於工作安排，最終未能成行。

17歲的 Patrick 其實覺得自己一個人出席也沒問題。不過當我們提出以「監護人」身份代表家長出席時，他很爽快地接受了。

這就對了！

不要拒絕我們的「好意」😊

否則，爸爸媽媽又怎能即時收到現場照片、得獎影片，以及那些值得珍藏一輩子的回憶呢？

監護人的角色，不只是簽文件、安排交通，或在緊急時提供協助。

很多時候，我們更是家長在英國的延伸。

多一分信任，多一分溝通，多一分陪伴，學生的留學生活便多一分安心與溫暖。

感謝 Patrick 願意讓我們參與他的重要時刻，也恭喜他獲得學校的肯定！

UKGuardianship 期待未來與大家分享更多學生的成長故事。💙

In this age of advanced technology, we have to be very careful about protecting our students' privacy, which means we cannot always share their smiling faces online.

Fortunately, as guardians, we do not mind being the ones "in front of the camera", so today we'd like to share a heartwarming story with you.

On 29 May, our Toby travelled all the way to Cambridge to attend the Prize Ceremony of one of our Korean students, Patrick.

Across the UK, many schools hold annual Prize Ceremonies during May and June to recognise students who have excelled academically, artistically, in sport, or in other areas of school life. For students, it is a proud moment of achievement. For parents, it is often a moment they never want to miss.

Patrick's parents are based in South Korea. Like many international parents, they would have loved to attend the ceremony in person, but work commitments made the trip impossible.

At 17, Patrick felt perfectly comfortable attending on his own. However, when we offered to attend as his guardian and represent his family, he was delighted to accept.

And we're very glad he did!

After all, without us being there, who would have captured the photographs, recorded the award presentation, and shared those precious memories with Mum and Dad back home?

Being a guardian is about much more than signing forms, arranging transport, or providing emergency support.

Sometimes, it means standing beside a student during an important milestone and representing the family when they cannot be there themselves.

A little more trust, a little more communication, and a little more support can make a student's journey abroad that much happier and more rewarding.

Congratulations to Patrick on his achievement, and thank you for allowing us to be part of such a special occasion.

We look forward to sharing more stories from our students' journeys in the future. 💙

五月份是一個多姿多彩的月份。

有學生剛完成校內考試，有 GCSE／A-level 學生正努力應考中，也有學生正收拾行李，準備回家渡過 half term 假期。

在眾多訊息之中，最令我們開心的，莫過於收到家長們傳來的喜訊。

過去一年，我們不少學生無論在校內還是校外，都取得了令人鼓舞的成績與獎項。在五月份的校內頒獎禮中，更有不少學生表現出色，成績驕人。

而比起獎項本身，更令我們感到窩心的，是家長願意主動與我們分享這些重要時刻。

這份信任，代表家長把我們當成「自己人」，而這種關係，正正是我們最珍而重之的。

期待未來收到更多屬於學生們的好消息，一起見證大家的成長與成就。✨

May has been a colourful and busy month for our students. Some have just completed their internal school exams, while our GCSE and A-level students are still working hard through exam season. At the same time, many students are packing their bags and heading home for their half-term break.

Among all the updates and messages we receive, nothing makes us happier than hearing wonderful news from parents.

We are incredibly proud of our students for the many achievements and awards they have received both inside and outside of school over the past year. During the school prize-giving ceremonies this May, many of our students truly shone and made us proud.

What makes us even happier is when parents take the initiative to share these joyful moments with us. To us, this means they see us as part of their family journey — and that trust and relationship is something we treasure deeply.

We look forward to celebrating even more good news and achievements from our students in the future. 🌟

作為監護人，最開心的時刻之一，就是收到學校傳來有關學生的好消息。無論獎項大小，對學生和家長而言，都是一份對努力與成長的肯定與鼓勵。✨

我們很高興與大家分享，來自韓國的學生 Patrick 榮獲 MPW Cambridge 特別獎項🎉 學校亦邀請家長及監護人一同出席頒獎典禮。

作為我們高端監護服務的一部分，會代表家長處理學校溝通，確保學生的重要消息與成就，能第一時間清晰地與家長分享。

我們深信，監護人不只是緊急聯絡人，更是學生在英國求學路上的支持者與陪伴者。能夠代替家長見證學生的重要時刻，並將這份喜悅從英國分享給家長，是我們的榮幸。

我們已經聯絡了家長，UKG非常樂意代表家長出席英國學校活動及頒獎典禮。

再次恭喜 Patrick 獲得這項值得驕傲的成就！👏

One of the most rewarding moments as a guardian is receiving positive news from school about our students’ achievements. No matter how big or small, every award is a meaningful recognition of a student’s hard work, progress, and dedication. ✨

We are delighted to share that our Korean student, Patrick, has received a special award from MPW Cambridge. 🎉 The school has kindly invited both the family and guardian to attend the prize ceremony.

As part of our premium guardianship service, supports parents by managing school communications on their behalf, ensuring important updates and achievements are shared clearly and promptly.

We strongly believe that a guardian is not simply an emergency contact, but also a trusted presence supporting students throughout their journey in the UK. We are honoured to represent families at school events and ceremonies, capturing these special moments and sharing the joy with parents back home.

Congratulations once again to Patrick on this wonderful achievement! 👏

整個獎項設有多個不同類別，涵蓋寄宿學校、學生支援、創新服務及國際學生關顧等範疇。而 UKGuardianship 今次榮獲的，正是其中一個專門針對國際學生支援的重要獎項： 「Supporting International Boarders Award – Guardians and Agents」

我們非常榮幸，UKGuardianship 於 2026 BSA Supporting Excellence Awards 中獲選為此獎項的 Winner。

We won! 🎉

Last week, the Boarding Schools'​ Association (BSA) named UKGuardianship winner of the 2026 Supporting Excellence Educational Agent/Guardian Award at the 60th anniversary dinner.

A proud moment for our team, in front of two hundred of the sector’s senior leaders.

But the work this award recognises did not happen on a stage.

It happened recently when two students at the same school sat down separately with a member of our team.

One was on track for a G5 offer.
The other was the school’s basketball captain.

By every visible measure, both were thriving.

But both told us they were lonely and afraid of disappointing the people watching them.

Neither would have said a word to a checklist.

Neither was going to ring a 24-hour line.

They opened up because someone knew them well enough to notice and listened from a place of love.

That work cannot be done at budget cost.

Premium guardianship is a different proposition from compliance guardianship, built around the time and training required to actually know a child.

Anyone who tells a parent otherwise is selling them a postcard of a service that does not exist.

This award is not ours alone.

It belongs to every education guardian who has noticed what a child has stopped saying, who has stood in the space between school expectations and family hopes long enough for both to be heard.

Thank you to the Boarding Schools'​ Association (BSA). And congratulations to fellow finalists Connexcel Ltd, Edukatus and Zeta Brent Education for the principled work you continue to do.

So here is the question we ask ourselves every morning.

Are you a “do things right” person, or a “do the right thing” person?

✨ Eid Mubarak to all our students, families, and partners around the world!
May this special occasion bring peace, happiness, and success to you and your loved ones. 💛

Yesterday at the AEGIS Association for the Education and Guardianship of International Students Conference in London, one message stood out clearly:

We are no longer operating in a traditional guardianship market.

We are now in a student experience and accountability market.

This shift means that guardianship organisations can no longer afford to be reactive. We must be proactive, structured, and consistently focused on delivering quality.

The conference brought together a wide range of voices across the sector, covering safeguarding, compliance, welfare, operational pressures, and the evolving role of AI in risk management.

What stood out most was not just the content, but the people behind it professionals who are deeply committed to doing the right thing for students.
