Aspire Ap School
School summary
Aspire Ap School is a small, fee-paying independent school in Birmingham, with around 12 pupils on its roll. This tiny scale sets it apart from most independents: the school operates more like an intimate learning community than a conventional classroom setting.

The school is co-educational and led by headteacher Mr Kwesi Mills.

Teaching & academics
Teaching takes place in a setting where pupils far outnumber the usual barriers of a large class, with the very small roll allowing close attention to each child. The high proportion of pupils on SEN support points to an environment geared towards adapting learning to individual needs. The school 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 Birmingham that prioritises individual support, particularly for pupils who learn best away from a crowded classroom.
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.
