Chestnut Hill
School summary
With around 20 pupils on roll, Chestnut Hill is a notably small independent school in Holywell, Flintshire. Its tiny size means an intimate setting where children are known individually rather than as part of a crowd. The school has an Anglican religious character and welcomes both boys and girls as day pupils. It is led by Head Vickie Salamone.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A small Anglican independent in Holywell that may suit families seeking a close-knit, day-school environment.
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.
