Ness Point School
School summary
With just 25 pupils on roll, Ness Point School is among the smallest independent schools in Suffolk, offering a notably intimate setting for families seeking close attention over scale. The mixed school admits pupils from age 11 and operates an 11+ entry route. Led by headteacher Mr Gary Corbett, it is a day school with no boarding provision. Its size suits children who thrive in small groups and may struggle to stand out in a larger environment.

Teaching & academics
As an independent school inspected by the ISI rather than Ofsted, Ness Point follows the regulatory framework for independent schools in England. The very small roll means teaching can be highly personalised, with individual pupils easily known to staff. Families considering the 11+ route should approach the school directly to understand entry requirements.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A genuinely small Suffolk independent where individual attention is the defining feature. Best suited to families who value a tight-knit community over the breadth of a bigger 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.
