Brighton and Hove Clinic School
Brighton and Hove Clinic School is an unusually small independent school, with around 16 pupils currently on roll in Brighton and Hove. Its size points to a highly individual approach, and the figures bear this out: roughly seven in eight pupils receive SEN support, far above what would be typical for a mainstream setting. The mixed school admits from age 11 and is led by Mrs Nicola Beil. It is likely to suit families seeking close, specialised attention rather than a large institution.
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.

Teaching & academics
With such a small roll, teaching can be closely tailored to each pupil, which is significant given that the great majority require additional learning support. The school is inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate. Entry is available at 11.

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 school built around individual support, where almost every pupil receives SEN provision. Worth exploring for families who value a tightly personalised setting over scale.
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.
