Sarah found herself having to find schooling for her three young daughters as
her family was relocated around the world through work commitments. Her
experiences in places such as Ireland, Kenya, Abu Dhabi and Bahrain as well as
on her return to the UK, meant that she understood all too well the stresses
that come with moving to a new country and the potential for emotional turmoil
when helping young children to settle into a new school in a different country.
Since it was founded, Educatus has assisted hundreds of parents moving to the UK
and Ireland from elsewhere in the world. The company has focussed on building a
dedicated team of consultants with experience in both UK and International
education. Families are introduced to Educatus through the Global Mobility
Industry, corporate clients and through word of mouth leading to discrete
assignments helping individual relocating families. For relocating families,
Educatus offers a highly personalised and professional service, aimed at
exploring every option within the chosen strand of education – be it private or
state education, nursery, special education, college or university. The
consultancy team understand that relocating is a challenge for the whole family,
and use their educational experience to offer the right level of support and
offering a range of services, all designed with the family in mind. For global
mobility and corporate organisations relocating employees with families, the
challenge lies in showing the potential assignee the benefits of the range of
education options available to them in the UK. Educatus provides an expert
solution to an issue that can potentially derail an otherwise successful
employee relocation project. The team understand that for parents, the decision
to accept an international assignment can hinge on whether their children’s
education and wellbeing can be assured. With this in mind, Educatus delivers
their service with a careful balance tipped towards empathy, but always aimed at
managing expectations and delivering results. For corporations, Educatus offers
a range of consulting options focussed on policy assistance and benchmarking,
educational site assessment, group move advice and location surveys for
schooling solutions. The team can even organise presentations to explain the
many educational options available in the UK.
