About Us

For over 30 years, Connections has been providing expert advice for finding the right school for your child in the UK. We at Connections have either had children at boarding schools or have been through the system ourselves so you’re in safe hands! We understand that every child is different, which is why we provide expert advice with the utmost attention to your child’s needs and interests. Our goal is to help you find the right education for your child while also acting as your child’s educational guardian throughout the year.
