Teaching & academics
The ISI judged the quality of pupils' education to be excellent, the inspectorate's top rating. The school's modest size allows for close attention to individual progress as boys move through the early years and into the senior preparatory stage. Around 4.67 per cent of pupils receive SEN support, a relatively small proportion that suggests a fairly typical learning profile across the roll.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A small, all-through boys' prep with top ISI marks for both education and personal development. It suits families seeking a close-knit environment from the early years to the eleven-plus stage.
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.
