In the UK, international students under the age of 18 are required to appoint a UK-based guardian during their studies. This is not only a mandatory requirement for schools and visa compliance, but also a vital safeguard to ensure a child’s wellbeing, safety, and academic success while living abroad.

At HANKER, our guardianship services are designed to create a safe, caring, and seamlessly connected support network for every student’s life and learning in the UK.
