Teaching & academics
The school operates 11+ entry at age 11 and is inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI). With so few pupils on roll, class sizes are likely to be small, which can suit families looking for close attention and a personal approach to learning.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A small, intimate independent for families who value being part of a close community over the scale of a larger school.
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.
