“We had always planned to send our daughter to school in England. When she turned 12 we started to make general enquiries. As it happens it was the ideal age to start preparing. Our daughter had gone to summer camps in England with Astra so we never questioned where we should get advice. After the initial assessment the consultant from Astra Education recommended several schools to consider based on our daughter’s personality and interests. One of the main criteria for us was that the school should have good transport links with airports. After the visits we shortlisted three schools and Astra helped us organise UKiset. Our daughter received offers from all three schools. We chose a school where she could pursue her interests in drawing and singing. Before she left for England our daughter was not very keen on sport but the new school offered her opportunities to try new sports. At the moment she is very much enjoying hockey and was selected to be the team’s captain. Astra helped us to find an ideal school for our daughter where she is thriving. A happy teenager is the best proof that we made the right choice.”
