Woodend Farm School
With just 21 pupils on its roll, Woodend Farm School is an unusually small independent school in Witham, Essex. The intimate scale means classes are necessarily tiny, allowing teaching to be closely tailored to each child. The school is co-educational and led by Mrs Nicola Overland, and it is inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI).

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 Witham, best suited to families who value close attention over the buzz of a larger setting.
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.
