Bartholomews Tutorial College
With roughly 40 pupils on roll, Bartholomews Tutorial College is a notably small independent school in Brighton. Its size places it among the most intimate settings a family might consider, where teaching can be closely tailored to individuals. Co-educational and non-boarding, it is led by Head William Duncombe and inspected by the ISI. The scale will suit families who value a personal, focused environment over the bustle of a large institution.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A very small, independent Brighton school where the appeal lies in its scale and individual focus.
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.
