Beech Grove School
School summary
Beech Grove School is a small Christian independent school in Dover, with just 81 pupils on its roll. Its intimate scale means each child is well known to staff, and the boarding provision allows it to draw families from beyond the immediate area. The school is mixed, takes pupils from age 11, and is inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate. Under the leadership of Head Mr Jeffrey Maendel, it offers a faith-informed education in a close community setting.

Teaching & academics
Entry at 11 is available, including via the 11+, making this a natural step for families looking ahead from primary school. With such small numbers, teaching takes place in modest groups where individual attention is easy to come by. Around 2.5 per cent of pupils are recorded as receiving SEN support.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A small, faith-based independent in Dover offering both day and boarding places. Its size suits families who value a tight-knit, personal environment over a large institution.
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.
