Dwight School London
School summary
One of relatively few schools in England to follow the International Baccalaureate from the early years through to the sixth form, Dwight School London offers a distinctly international, continuous curriculum to pupils aged 2 to 18. It is a small, mixed school of around 260 pupils, and its compact size lends it an intimate feel, particularly in the sixth form, where just 47 students are enrolled. The Independent Schools Inspectorate rated the school excellent for both education quality and pupils' personal development, and found it met all compliance standards. Set in Barnet, the school admits new pupils at 11.

Teaching & academics
Teaching is built entirely around the IB, giving pupils a coherent academic pathway from the Primary Years through to the Diploma rather than a switch between systems. The ISI's excellent rating reflects strong outcomes across the school. With roughly 6 per cent of pupils receiving SEN support, the small classes allow for individual attention.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A small, internationally minded school offering a single, joined-up IB journey from age two to eighteen. The intimacy that comes with 260 pupils will appeal to families who want their child known as an individual.
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.
