Teaching & academics
The curriculum is built around GCSEs and A-levels, the established route towards university entry. Pupils can also take the Extended Project Qualification, which develops independent research skills valued by universities. With such a small roll, teaching groups are likely to be intimate, allowing close attention to individual progress.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A small, fee-paying school offering boarding alongside a familiar GCSE and A-level pathway, suited to families who value an intimate setting.
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.
