For Agents
Having built up strong relationships over many years, we know how important it is for agents to be confident in our communication, in our ability to meet the needs of all pupils and, of course, in the quality of our product.
At Oswestry Summer School we work with a wide variety of agents representing pupils from across the globe. Some of these agents also work with the main school - sending pupils to study at Oswestry throughout the school year, but many of our agents simply send pupils to our Summer and Easter programmes.
In everything, our ethos is to find the best and most enjoyable pathway for the children whom it is our privilege to look after.
"What an amazing team to work with - always answering emails immediately, reassuring us and our pupils' parents and dealing with even the tiniest requests so quickly and so politely! Our pupils had the most amazing time!"

Whether you are looking to send a single child or a larger group, we are deeply committed to running a process that ensures that pupils already feel like they are at home when they arrive at the school. This includes:
- initial meetings with agents (either online or in person) to explain the programmes and to discover together which one is the right fit for the pupils;
- any support required with the marketing and promotion of the course on behalf of the agent (including the creation of bespoke static and video material);
- prompt provision of documentation (including fee schedules and invoices) and letters of invitation to assist with visa accreditation processes;
- online on-boarding meetings for the pupils themselves - helping them to get to know the school and ensuring that we tailor our programmes appropriately to their needs;
- arrangement of airport transfers with our trusted transport partner team;
- detailed contact and feedback throughout the pupil's stay - including images;
- follow-up and evaluative feedback meetings to help us ensure our programme remains the very best in its field.
Meetings can be booked at any time with our Director of International Summer Schools, Maurice Walters - email summer@oswestryschool.com.
The pupils came back excited and determined to go again next year! They didn't have a bad word to say about any aspect of their stay - from the academics to the food and accommodation - they loved it all!

We are happy to work with agents on their preferred model - either offering a net price for resale or establishing a very competitive commission arrangement.
In certain cases we may be willing to enter into exclusivity agreements for territories and regions and this can be discussed at any time.
