Host families are urgently required to host homestay international students, attending state and private schools, for Ardmore Education.

Students stay in the UK for from one to two weeks up to an academic year.

They either come independently or in a group with their teacher(s).

Up to four students may be hosted at one time with suitable families.

A spokesman said: “Ideally we are looking for people with experience of hosting students, but this is not essential as full support and guidance will be given.”

Host families receive £23.50 per night for short-term students and £133 per week for long-term students.
