Boarding at Rishworth - educational guardians 

In the interests of each boarding pupil's welfare and as an additional reassurance to geographically-distant parent , we insist that all boarders whose parents live overseas have an educational guardian resident in Britain. Appointed by the parents, this is a responsible adult with whom the School can liaise routinely, who is encouraged to take an active interest in the pupil's education and who can act in loco parentis in emergencies. The School can help, if required, with the establishment of suitable guardianship arrangements.
