Services
Each student is assigned a coordinator who will take care of them while they are here.
Visits
Weekly visits are paid to every student in September and every 2 weeks from October on. Should a student need help at any stage they should contact their coordinator. An email is sent each time a student gets a visit. At the end of each month the copies are checked and a report is sent indicating the student’s progress. These are not school reports but do give an indication as to whether a student is working or not.
Because EDEX coordinators are visiting schools, on a regular basis, they are usually kept informed by the teachers or principals as to how a student is integrating with pupils and staff.
Likewise, we are in contact with the host families on a regular basis to monitor the students progress there.
The First Few Days
On arriving in Ireland we meet students in the airport and organise a safe transfer to their school or host family.
For students going to a day school their family will bring you to the school and introduce them. If subject choices have already been made then we will have most, if not all of the books organised. For those students who have yet to choose then we will help them with their decision and then get their books.
