Arnold Lodge School

MixedIntake
0Pupils

A small independent school in Leamington Spa, Arnold Lodge takes pupils all the way from age four to eighteen, giving families a single setting across the whole of a child's education. With around 469 on roll and a sixth form of just 54, the atmosphere is intimate rather than institutional. The Independent Schools Inspectorate rated the school excellent for both education and personal development, and found its compliance requirements fully met. A notably high proportion of pupils, more than a quarter, receive some form of SEN support, which speaks to a school used to adapting to different needs.

Where every mark matters.

Places are limited and demand is high, so exam performance is what sets candidates apart. Passmate turns the months ahead into ten focused minutes a day on the exact topics this school tests.

This isn’t a question bank. Watch it decide how to teach.

Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.

A small, all-through independent with an excellent ISI verdict and a genuine track record of supporting pupils who learn differently.

That’s where Passmate comes in. Tutoring is the most effective thing in a child’s preparation - a well-tutored child can outperform the vast majority of their peers. Passmate works alongside your tutor, not instead of them: it learns how your child thinks, finds the gaps, and shows the tutor exactly where to spend each session - so the limited time you have lands on what actually decides a place.

Works alongside your child’s tutor - not instead of them.
