Agents
For many of our overseas pupils educational agents provide useful help and advice in recommending King Edward's and guiding them through the application process
We work with agents throughout the world and a list of our principal agents by country can be found by clicking this link.
Help and advice provided by agents normally includes the following:
- Pre-testing (Screening tests) to establish levels of ability in English and Mathematics
- Selection of schools
- Completion of application forms and registration fee payments (Application Form)
- Supervision of entrance tests (Entrance Tests)
- Visa applications (for non EU countries) (Visa Information)
- Payments of acceptance fees and overseas deposits (Payment)
- Selection and appointment of Guardians (all overseas pupils are required by King Edward’s to have a Guardian in the UK) (Guardian Information)
- Assistance with travel arrangements to and from the UK, including help with transport and collection from UK airports to the School
- Dealing with any problems that may occur during the pupils stay at the School
- Helping parents understand reports and progress reviews provided by the School
Agents do not normally charge for many of these services and they do receive a commission from King Edward's for introducing pupils to the School.
Most agents have to be licensed or accredited by the local government. Some may be accredited by the British Council.
