August Travel Update
We are looking forward to welcoming back our students returning to school in September and meeting our new arrivals!
UK Entry Requirements have been updated:
Travel and quarantine
Boarding school pupils who are ordinarily resident in the UK, including those who are unaccompanied and who are attending boarding schools on a child student visa or student visa, who have travelled from or through amber list countries (and have not been in a red country in the previous 10 clear days), are exempt from the requirements to quarantine and take a day 8 test.
Those aged 11 to 17 need proof of a negative COVID-19 test to travel to England (children aged 10 and under are exempt from this) and those aged 5 to 17 must take a COVID-19 travel test on or before day 2. More information is provided in the government’s quarantine and testing guidance.

We would still advise that parents and students check with the airline they are travelling with directly regarding testing requirements before travel, to ensure that they satisfy requirements.
AEGIS Covid Safe Charter
Cambridge Guardians are pleased to be AEGIS accredited and have been following the advice in the Covid Safe Charter.
Some of our students have enjoyed staying in the UK throughout the Summer, being well looked after by host families. Following the new travel guidelines, Cambridge Guardians will continue to look after and support our students when they cannot stay at school and travel home is not possible or a sensible option.

We are happy to help you with guardianship and host family accommodation for your children.
