Isabelle had a daughter already studying in the UK and wanted to relocate the family to London to be closer.
She and her husband could work from London so that wasn’t an issue. But they did have a younger child of school age that they wanted to attend a UK private school.
Timing for this client was everything. We needed to secure a school place a year in advance of them arriving in the UK.
The first task was to identify the best fit UK private schools in and around London and then start applying. We needed to find just the right school for their son in term of academia, syllabus and the culture of the school too. The parents also wanted a school that offered the IB curriculum not GCSEs and A’levels. Friends and family had recommended schools all over London and the Home Counties but based on our research we narrowed it down to just two schools in central London as being the best fit not just for the child but the family as a whole too. Interviews were arranged for the family with the Head Teachers of each school and after receiving offers from both schools, the family accepted an offer at their number one choice of school. All we had to do then was to find them a home: near the school, near the office, close to shops, restaurants and parks and easy access to Heathrow. No problem!
The search started 6 months after the school was secured and after a number of remote viewings, the family came to London and viewed several properties in person. They found their perfect home and an offer was submitted and accepted with Anderson Associates Relocation negotiating from London whilst the family were in the US.
