Advising International Families on Selective UK Boarding School Admissions
Selective UK boarding school admissions is no longer simply about entry. It is a long-term positioning decision shaping academic, cultural and global trajectory.
CJE Educational Consultancy advises internationally mobile families on gaining entry to Britain’s most selective boarding schools. Working with families based in the United States, China, Hong Kong, Singapore and Europe, we specialise exclusively in the UK admissions system, offering long-term strategic guidance focused on preparation, institutional fit and outcomes.
Securing places at Top UK Schools with over 30 years of experience
We specialise in placing children only in schools we know deliver exceptional standards. Over the years, we have successfully supported families in gaining places at the UK’s most prestigious boarding schools. Admission to these schools is highly competitive, requiring both academic strength and thorough preparation. Our approach combines expert strategic guidance, personalised tutoring and mentoring to ensure children perform with confidence in both entrance exams and interviews.
​
While we are delighted when students secure scholarships or entry to leading schools, our greatest satisfaction comes from knowing that each child has been matched with the school that best suits their personality, talents and ambitions. We believe excellence exists across a wide range of schools and for pupils of every ability. With unmatched insight into the British education system, our experienced consultants successfully place children into top preparatory and senior schools.
​
Ultimately, our goal is always the same: to ensure each child secures a place at a school where they will thrive, both academically and personally.
Why Elite Education Planning Is Moving Earlier
Across New York, Los Angeles, Hong Kong and Singapore, families are beginning structured education planning at 10 or 11 years before university applications.​ The volatility of late-stage admissions has prompted a shift upstream.
Rather than reacting at 17, some families are building foundations earlier - aligning academic development, cultural readiness and institutional pathways well in advance.
​
Selective schools such as Eton College, Harrow School, Winchester College and Cheltenham Ladies' College offer defined entry points and structured academic frameworks that support long-term planning.
This is not about prestige.
It is about predictability, continuity and thoughtful positioning.
CJE advises on the strategy behind these decisions - not simply the paperwork.
