School summary

With just 18 pupils on roll, Bow Street School is an independent school of unusually small scale, set in Bilston in the West Midlands. The size suggests a close-knit environment where staff can know each child well and teaching can be closely tailored to the individual. It is co-educational and day-only, with no religious affiliation, and is led by Head Miss Amelia Clare Harper. Families drawn to a highly personal, small-community setting rather than the breadth of a large institution are likely to find it of interest.

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 tiny independent school where being one of fewer than twenty pupils means genuinely individual attention. Best suited to families who value intimacy of community over the scale and facilities of a larger school.

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.
