Whatever your age, whilst you are a pupil at Dauntsey’s you must have a guardian who lives in the UK during term time. Your guardian must be available to collect you if you are too ill to be at school or, if you are suspended from school. Your guardian may also look after you during the exeat weekends during the year and for half term holidays.

We advise use of AEGIS accredited guardianship agencies.
