Oakmont School
With just 16 pupils on roll, Oakmont School is one of the smallest independent schools a family is likely to come across. This mixed, fee-paying school in Cardiff offers a notably intimate setting, where each child is part of a tiny community rather than a large year group. For parents who value close attention and a personal scale of learning, the size alone sets Oakmont apart.

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, Oakmont charges fees and sits outside the state system. Its very small roll means teaching can be closely tailored to individual pupils, though the limited detail available makes it sensible for families to ask directly about the curriculum and approach.

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 school in Cardiff, Oakmont will suit families looking for an unusually close-knit environment.
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.
