Compass Community School Pinetree Park
Compass Community School Pinetree Park is an unusually intimate independent school in Lewes, East Sussex, with just twelve pupils on roll. A small setting of this kind allows for close attention and a personal approach that larger schools rarely match. The school has a Christian character and offers boarding alongside day places, taking pupils from age 11. It is inspected by the ISI and led by headteacher Mr Thomas Parks.
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
The school admits at 11 and operates an 11+ entry route. With such a small roll, teaching can be highly individualised, which may particularly suit families seeking a closely supported alternative to a conventional classroom.

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 tiny Christian independent in Lewes offering both boarding and day places, best suited to families who value a personal, small-scale setting.
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.
