Cambian Northampton School
School summary
With just 24 pupils on its roll, Cambian Northampton School is among the smallest independent schools families will encounter in West Northamptonshire. The mixed, non-denominational school takes pupils from age 11 and prepares them for GCSE qualifications. Its size means an unusually intimate setting, and the school is led by headteacher Miss Leanne Dodds. It is inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate rather than Ofsted.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A genuinely tiny independent school in the East Midlands, best suited to families who value a close-knit, personal environment over the bustle 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.
