Our goal is to give Spanish children the chance to be fully immersed in the daily life of a British family, helping them improve their English, deepen their cultural understanding, and develop a genuine appreciation for the UK.

 

Each student is carefully matched with a family whose child is of a similar age - often the same gender - and shares common interests. This thoughtful pairing results in highly successful placements, with many families choosing to host repeatedly, sometimes even welcoming the same student for up to five summers. Lifelong friendships often grow from these exchanges, and many English children are later invited to visit Spain.

 

Students arrive in late June, staying for just under four weeks - usually during the final weeks of the English school term. We ask the host child’s school to welcome the Spanish student as a listener during this time.

 

As a token of appreciation, we offer a fee per student accepted. Most schools host one or two students, though some welcome more with great success:

 

  • £100 for students attending from June 15–29
  • £200 for students attending from June 24–July 20

 

These fees support the school's participation and help make the exchange a rewarding experience for all.

Our Students

We interview each child and their family to ensure they understand their responsibilities and our expectations. We select students who are polite, motivated, and mature enough to benefit from the experience.

Insurance

Our students are fully insured to cover any eventualities, that may occur while they are in England anywhere -including school-, details of which are sent to the schools prior to arrival.

DBS Checks

Following the Safeguarding of Vulnerable Groups Act 2006, all members in the host families over 18 are requested to be DBS checked.
