Teaching & academics

Teaching at this independent school takes place on a notably small scale, where tiny class sizes allow learning to be shaped around the individual. With a fifth of pupils on SEN support, the approach is likely to suit families seeking a personalised, nurturing alternative to larger mainstream settings.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.

Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.

A very small, supportive independent school for families who value being known by name over the bustle of a large 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.
