Madani Academy
Madani Academy is among the smaller independent schools families will encounter, with around 57 pupils on roll in Portsmouth. Its modest size points to small classes and a closely knit community where pupils are likely to be known well by staff. The mixed school admits children from age 11 and is led by headteacher Mr Mohammad Rahman. Inspection is carried out by the Independent Schools Inspectorate rather than Ofsted.
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
Entry is at age 11, with an 11+ assessment forming part of the admissions process. With so few pupils on roll, teaching can be tailored closely to individuals, an arrangement that may suit families looking for an intimate alternative to larger schools.

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 option in Portsmouth, best suited to families who value a personal, close-knit setting over the breadth of a larger school.
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.
