Statement of Aims, Principles and Practice

Our Aims

At Radius Education and Welfare Services, we provide premium, bespoke education and welfare guardianship for international students studying in the UK. Our aim is to ensure every student is safe, supported, and empowered to thrive both personally and academically.

We are committed to nurturing thoughtful, considerate young people who are confident in their independence and equipped to pursue their own unique version of success.

Our tailored guardianship ensures each student is guided with care, integrity and a deep understanding of their personal needs, goals and potential.

Our Principles

  1. Student-Centred Support
    Every decision we make is guided by the individual needs, preferences and wellbeing of the student. We build meaningful relationships with our students, families and schools to provide a consistent, personalised framework of care.

  2. Safety and Welfare First
    The safeguarding of our students is paramount. We adhere strictly to the guidance in Keeping Children Safe in Education and all UK safeguarding laws and best practices. We foster open communication and encourage a culture of vigilance, trust, and mutual respect.

  3. Bespoke and Premium Service
    We offer a personalised, high-quality guardianship service tailored to each student's background, aspirations and educational environment. Our small caseloads ensure that no detail is overlooked and every student receives the time, attention and support they deserve.

  4. Promoting Independence and Growth
    We believe in guiding students towards independence, helping them develop autonomy, confidence and decision-making skills. Our role evolves as students grow, ensuring they are supported yet encouraged to step forward into adulthood.

  5. Cultural Understanding and Integration
    We provide expert guidance to help international students adapt to UK academic and cultural life. We encourage respectful global citizenship and aim to enrich our students’ experiences through empathy, diversity and inclusivity.

  6. Clear Communication and Partnership
    We maintain strong, transparent communication with parents, schools, homestays and students. We work in close collaboration with all partners to ensure each student’s journey is smooth, consistent and well-coordinated.

Our Practice

  • Every student is assigned a named guardian who maintains regular, meaningful contact and is available in emergencies 24/7.

  • We provide carefully matched, DBS-checked homestay placements when needed, with regular visits and welfare checks.

  • Students living independently (aged 16+) receive bespoke support tailored to their circumstances and level of maturity.

  • We monitor academic progress, emotional wellbeing, and social development through structured visits and reporting.

  • We encourage goal setting and reflection to help students define and pursue their own version of success.

  • We ensure students are listened to and involved in decisions that affect them, in line with their age and understanding.

  • We provide continuous safeguarding and welfare training to our team and partners, including schools and homestays.

Our Promise

Radius is more than a guardianship provider — we are a trusted partner in your child’s educational journey. We champion their ambitions, nurture their growth, and safeguard their wellbeing at every step.
