Bonas MacFarlane is widely regarded as the UK’s leading provider of bespoke educational support, guiding families through every stage of a child’s academic journey. Our work is defined by thoughtful, individualised guidance that nurtures confidence, curiosity and long-term success.
Bonas MacFarlane occupies a distinctive position within the educational landscape.
Having spent more than twenty-five years pioneering bespoke education support, we have worked quietly and intensively with families who place deep value on education, not simply as a route to outcomes, but as a formative force in a young person’s life.
We are widely regarded as the leading provider of bespoke education support in the UK, managing every aspect of a child’s educational journey, from early foundations through to admission to the most selective schools and universities.
Our work is defined by an ability to read situations precisely: knowing when to challenge, when to steady, and when to step back and allow curiosity, confidence and independence to develop.
We have advised prime ministerial and presidential families, royal and former royal households, senior figures in intelligence services, and families operating in complex political and international environments. Discretion, judgement and perspective are not optional extras; they are integral to how we work.
What unites our clients is not their profiles, but their seriousness of intent. They are families who care deeply about education done well.
Our work always begins with a thoughtful conversation, so feel free to reach out to us when you are ready.
