Access School
School summary
With around 30 pupils on roll, Access School is a notably small independent school in Shrewsbury, Shropshire. Its size places it among the most intimate settings a family might consider, where every child is well known to staff and class groups are necessarily small. The school is co-educational, takes pupils from age 11 and is led by Mrs Sarah Earing. It is inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate.
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.

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 Shrewsbury, best suited to families who value an intimate setting over the scale and breadth of a larger institution.
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.
