Fair Ways School
With around 50 pupils on roll, Fair Ways School is a notably small independent school in Southampton, Hampshire. Its scale places it among the most intimate fee-paying settings in the area, where staff are likely to know each child individually. The school is mixed and non-denominational, admitting pupils from age 11, and is led by headteacher Mrs Victoria Adams. It is a day school rather than a boarding one, and is inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A small, independent day school in Southampton that may suit families seeking a close-knit environment from age 11.
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.
