Our Team in China
Linx Education provides a level of service that can only be delivered through an office presence in the market. Our carefully selected schools have dedicated staff working full time on the recruitment of high quality students. Our services include all the promotion activity and material required to promote each school. We represent our clients across China through regular agent visits and attendance at exhibitions. This ensures that we are in regular discussion raising awareness of our schools in the market.
Our staffs are native speakers and fluent in English, providing the administration, communication and support services needed to ensure a smooth experience for all involved. Our advisors are highly experienced in the education recruitment market and have a wealth of knowledge that ensures the correct advice is being given at each stage in the process.
Our services continue after the student is placed with Linx partner company, Compass Guardianship offering a full range of pastoral and educational guidance packages .
UK operations
Our UK based operation team, led by our Director of Institutional Relations, work closely with our schools ensuring that all agreed aims are being met.
The UK Director is a retired Headmaster with extensive experience of the UK independent day and boarding market, as well as significant teaching experience overseas. With a Masters Degree in International Education he is well placed to appreciate the needs of our international market. Also as a trained, experienced and practising ISI inspector, he brings significant knowledge and experience of school education to our team. He works closely with our recommended schools taking a close interest in the unique requirements of each institution.
Regular visits form the basis of the relationship with our client schools with typically a minimum of two full visits taking place each year. Our Director works closely with the schools to develop an understanding of the unique requirements of each. The two visits are a full planning visit in the autumn term for the next academic year and an interim assessment visit in the spring term to assess progress and to allow feedback to and from the school. At these meetings, developments and requirements are discussed to allow effective training of our staff in China. In this way we ensure that our staff are recruiting the correct profile of student for each school.
Founding Director
Linx Education was founded in 1998 and has been successfully placed students in UK since then. The founding director is still actively developing the company dividing his time between UK and China. This hands on approach ensures that the original aims of the company to provide a high quality, stress free experience for the institutions, agents and families continues to be a core value today. Both UK and Chinese teams work closely together under the Director's guidance. Linx staff also work alongside our partner Guardianship company, Compass Education to provide a comprehensive service to the families we support.
