Great Oaks Small School
School summary
With just 43 pupils on its roll, Great Oaks Small School lives up to its name, offering an unusually intimate setting in Ramsgate, Kent. This independent, co-educational school admits pupils from age 11 and takes children through to GCSE. The small scale will appeal to families seeking close attention and a setting where every pupil is well known to staff rather than one face among hundreds.

Teaching & academics

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A genuinely small independent school for families who want their child known by name, not number. Best suited to those who value intimacy over the breadth a larger school can offer.
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.
