Finton House School
School summary
Finton House is a small independent prep in Wandsworth, taking boys and girls from ages four to eleven. With around 348 children on roll, it offers a close-knit, family-sized environment rather than the scale of larger London preps. The Independent Schools Inspectorate awarded its top rating of "excellent" for both education and personal development, and the school met all compliance requirements. Notably, more than a fifth of pupils receive some form of SEN support, suggesting a genuinely inclusive approach to learning.

Teaching & academics
The ISI's "excellent" judgement across both the quality of education and pupils' personal development places Finton House among the strongly performing prep schools assessed by the inspectorate. With over 22 per cent of pupils on SEN support, the school combines academic ambition with a clear commitment to meeting a wide range of learning needs. Families seeking a prep that nurtures the whole child, rather than focusing narrowly on results, will find that ethos reflected here.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A small, inclusive Wandsworth prep with top ISI marks and a growing bursary fund - well suited to families who value pastoral care and breadth as much as academic achievement.
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.
