As more African families pursue international education, concerns over fraud, exploitation, and misinformation in the UK admissions market continue to rise. In response, Nigerian-born UK education and mobility expert, Destiny Pointer, has launched Arthur-Reese, a London-based consultancy designed to provide transparent, ethical, and personalised guidance for African students seeking admission into top UK universities and private schools.

The official website, www.arthur-reese.com, was unveiled in London, marking what Destiny describes as “a direct response to the crisis of trust” faced by students across Africa.

For years, many African students have fallen victim to unregulated agents who charge high fees, provide misleading information, or abandon students after payments are made.

According to Destiny, these practices have led to financial loss, visa refusal, academic disruption, and emotional distress for countless families.

“At Arthur-Reese, our goal is simple,” she said. “To replace confusion with clarity, and risk with trust. Families invest their life savings into education. They deserve honest guidance not shortcuts or hidden agendas.”

Professional Expertise Meets Personal Experience

Destiny brings over eight years of experience in HR strategy, employee mobility, workforce planning, and people management across major UK organisations including Ernst & Young, PricewaterhouseCoopers, Ball Corporation, and AllPoints Fibre.

A graduate of Oxford Brookes University with an MSc in Human Resource Management and an Associate Member of the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD), she has built a career grounded in compliance, transparency, and ethical practice.

Yet, it was her own journey as a Nigerian navigating the UK education system that shaped the vision behind Arthur-Reese.

“I experienced the confusion that many African students face, lack of guidance, conflicting information, and unnecessary financial pressure,” she explained. “Arthur-Reese is the support system I wish existed when I started.”

A Personalised, Integrity-Driven Pathway

Arthur-Reese offers structured, end-to-end support tailored to the unique needs of African students. This includes:
Guidance on identifying suitable universities and courses
Personal statement development and application support
Visa preparation and document checks
Pre-departure orientation for life in the UK
Private and boarding school placements for younger learners

Unlike the traditional agency model, the consultancy emphasises long-term student success rather than transactional outcomes.

“There is no one-size-fits-all pathway,” Destiny noted. “Our role is to help students make informed, realistic decisions that align with their goals and financial circumstances.”

Tackling the Rising Competitiveness of UK Admissions

Admissions to UK universities especially postgraduate and professional programmes have become increasingly competitive. Arthur-Reese helps students present a strong profile by considering academic performance, work experience, career goals, and long-term employability.

“We work only with reputable, accredited UK institutions,” Destiny said. “Success comes from preparation and honesty, not from manipulating the process.”

A Strategic Partner for African Families

For many households, UK education represents more than a degree; it is a gateway to social mobility, global exposure, and generational transformation. A UK qualification offers:
Global recognition and employability
Access to a diverse, international academic environment
Structured post-study work opportunities
Strong English language and cultural skills
Arthur-Reese positions itself as a trusted bridge supporting families throughout the decision-making process and even after students arrive in the UK.

“Success is not just about receiving an offer or getting a visa,” Destiny emphasised. “It’s about thriving once you land. We remain part of the student’s journey.”

Opening Access Through a Free Discovery Call

To mark the launch, Arthur-Reese has introduced a Free Discovery Call, giving students and parents an opportunity to speak directly with the team before committing. The consultation helps assess goals, clarify misunderstandings, and outline realistic options.

Strengthening Ethical Student Mobility Across Africa

Arthur-Reese aims to serve students across Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya, South Africa, and other education markets where demand for UK degrees continues to grow.

By offering transparent services and verified institutional partnerships, the consultancy hopes to restore trust in a sector deeply affected by misinformation.

Destiny concluded with a message of hope: “Our mission is to ensure that no African student is ever left stranded again. With the right guidance, UK education is not just a dream, it’s achievable.”
