All Campbell Institute Homestay Families have been assessed by The Campbell Institute for suitability, and each family has a contractual obligation to The Campbell Institute to meet minimum standards, for example a warm and comfortable bedroom, and a friendly and comfortable environment. According to the New Zealand Ministry of Education Code of Practice homestay families for students who are aged under 18 years old must be vetted by the New Zealand Police as being suitable homestay providers.
