Compton Dundon School
School summary
With just 17 pupils on roll, Compton Dundon School is among the smallest of independent settings, offering a notably intimate environment in Somerset. This co-educational, fee-paying school takes pupils from age 11 and operates without a religious character. It is overseen by Head Mr Lloyd James and inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate. Families drawn to a close-knit, day-school community where pupils are unlikely to go unnoticed may find the scale appealing.

Teaching & academics
The school admits at 11 and runs an 11+ entry process. Its very small size suggests teaching can be closely tailored to each pupil, with classes that are necessarily compact.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A tiny independent day school for those who value individual attention over institutional scale.
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.
