Warwick Preparatory School
Set in the heart of Warwick, this independent preparatory school takes girls from the ages of 3 to 11, with a co-educational sixth offering. Around 499 pupils are on roll, placing it among the smaller independent schools, where staff are well placed to know each child individually. The Independent Schools Inspectorate awarded its most recent inspection an "excellent" rating, the highest available, and found the school fully compliant with regulatory standards. Led by Head Mrs Hellen Dodsworth, it offers a settled, focused environment for families seeking a thorough grounding in the early years.

The ISI judged the school "excellent" across the board, a result that reflects strong teaching and pupil achievement throughout the prep years. Around 12 per cent of pupils receive support for special educational needs, suggesting the school is accustomed to adapting its provision to a range of learners.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A small, highly rated girls' prep in Warwick where individual attention and an "excellent" ISI record go hand in hand.
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.
