During our UK Boarding Schools Event (April 11–13), families can book private one-on-one meetings with school representatives—all held at the convenient location of the Hamilton Princess. Choose times that work for you and meet with as many schools as you'd like. These sessions are the perfect chance to ask questions, explore options, and get advice tailored to your child’s needs.
Meeting with UK boarding school representative's one-on-one is an invaluable opportunity to gain insights, ask questions, and determine the best fit for your child. With limited time in these sessions, preparation is key to making the most of your meeting. Here’s how you can maximize the experience:
1. Do Your Research
Before your meeting, explore the schools that interest you. Visit their websites, review their curriculum, and note any unique offerings. This will help you ask targeted questions rather than general ones.
2. Prepare Key Questions
Use your time wisely by preparing a list of questions in advance. Consider asking about:
Academics: What subjects and qualifications are offered? What is the teaching approach?
Boarding Life: What is the day-to-day experience like for students?
Extracurriculars: What sports, arts, and clubs are available?
Pastoral Care: How does the school support student well-being and development?
Admissions & Scholarships: What are the entry requirements, and is financial aid available?
3. Discuss Your Child’s Needs & Interests
Each child is unique, and this is your chance to find out how a school can cater to your child's strengths, learning style, and interests. Share relevant details such as academic aspirations, extracurricular passions, and any specific support they may need.
4. Take Notes & Compare Schools
With Bridgeway, it is possible for us to facilitate multiple meetings in one event - which means it is easy to forget key details, when you have been speaking to a lot of school representatives. Jot down notes during or immediately after your session to help you compare schools later.
5. Ask About Next Steps
If you’re interested in a school, find out what the next steps are. Should you book a campus visit? When are application deadlines? Understanding the timeline will help you stay ahead in the admissions process.
6. Follow Up After the Event
If a school stood out to you, follow up with us. We can help you liaise with the school and expressing interest can go a long way in building a relationship with them.
