Jeannine Manuel School
School summary
Bilingualism sits at the heart of this Camden independent, where French and English run through daily life and culminate in the International Baccalaureate. Founded in 2015, it is a relatively young school by London standards, mixed and medium-sized with around 690 pupils. A pupil-to-teacher ratio of about nine to one is generous, allowing close attention, and just under a tenth of pupils receive SEN support. It will appeal most to families drawn to a genuinely international, French-influenced education.
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
Teaching leads towards the International Baccalaureate, a broad, internationally recognised qualification that keeps a wide range of subjects in play rather than narrowing early. French is woven into the curriculum, making this a natural fit for bilingual households or those seeking a strong second language. The low pupil-to-teacher ratio supports this demanding, multilingual approach.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A French-English bilingual school offering the IB in the heart of Camden, suited to internationally minded families who value language and breadth.
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.
