Cockburn Reach Academy
School summary
Cockburn Reach Academy is a notably small independent school in Leeds, with around 32 pupils on its roll. A roll of this size means a markedly intimate setting, where staff are likely to know each child well and teaching can be closely tailored. The school is co-educational and takes day pupils only, with no boarding provision. It is overseen by the Independent Schools Inspectorate and led by headteacher Mrs Ali Quinn.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A genuinely small Leeds independent that may suit families seeking a close-knit, personal setting over the scale 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.
