Discover International TuitionFrequently asked questions
-
Do you only support families relocating to the UK?
No — while many families engage us when moving to the UK, we also support outbound relocations and globally mobile families. Our expertise covers international curricula, admissions processes, and educational transitions across Europe, the Middle East, Asia, and North America.
-
Can you help us secure a school place before we arrive?
Yes. We frequently assist families with advance planning — from school shortlisting and virtual interviews to liaising directly with admissions teams. In urgent cases, we can also secure interim options such as online tuition or placements at Lionheart School while long-term plans are finalised.
-
Can Lionheart advise on international school systems and curricula?
Absolutely. We work with British, IB, American, and bilingual systems worldwide. Our consultants help families select the right curriculum fit — and ensure smooth academic transitions with appropriate subject alignment, credit transfers, and language support.
-
What if our child has specific learning needs or SEND support requirements?
We are highly experienced in working with children who require additional support. Whether that means continuity of provision overseas or finding the right specialist school in a new country, we collaborate closely with therapists, psychologists, and SENCOs to ensure consistency and progress.
-
Can you help with university planning during a relocation?
Yes. Many of our clients relocate during the final years of schooling, and we provide continuity of guidance around university applications — whether for UK, US, or international destinations — ensuring that students stay on track, academically and strategically.
