Light Years School
With just 19 pupils on roll, Light Years School is among the smallest of independent settings in Fareham, Hampshire. Mixed and non-denominational, it offers a day education on an intimate scale, where the entire community can be known to one another. Such a small roll points to an unusually high degree of individual attention. The school is led by headteacher Mrs Sarah Alden and is inspected by the ISI.

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
As an independent school inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate, Light Years follows the standards expected of the sector. The very small number of pupils allows teaching to be closely tailored to each child, an approach that may particularly suit families seeking a personalised alternative to larger classrooms.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A genuinely tiny independent school in Fareham, best suited to families who value close attention and a personal touch over the scale of a larger institution.
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.
