Bosworth Independent School
School summary
A small independent school of around 180 pupils in West Northamptonshire, Bosworth offers both day and boarding places and admits pupils from age 11. Led by Head Mr Anthony Oulton and inspected by the ISI, it is sized to feel intimate rather than institutional. The curriculum runs from GCSE through to A-level, with the EPQ available for those wanting to stretch into independent research. Its mix of boarding and a sciences-heavy sixth form suggests a school that suits families looking for a focused, sixth-form-oriented environment.

Teaching & academics
The sixth form leans firmly towards the sciences and mathematics, with Maths, Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Further Maths among the most popular A-levels alongside Business Studies and Psychology. At GCSE, pupils gravitate to the English subjects, Maths, History, Psychology and Computing. Around 9% of pupils receive SEN support. Reported headline measures sit well below national averages, so parents should ask the school directly about how these figures are calculated and how progress is tracked for individual pupils.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A small, boarding-friendly independent with a clear pull towards maths and the sciences at sixth form - worth a close look, and a frank conversation about results.
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.
