Teaching & academics

The ISI judged the quality of pupils' achievement "excellent", the inspectorate's highest rating. As an all-through preparatory school taking children from babyhood to the end of Year 6, Edenhurst is well placed to build learning steadily over a long span. The small roll allows for close attention to each child's progress.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.

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

A small, non-selective-feeling prep with an "excellent" ISI verdict, well suited to families wanting an intimate setting and continuity from the early years through to 11.

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.
