Embleton View
School summary
Embleton View is a notably small independent school in Darlington, with around 24 pupils on roll. Its size places it among the most intimate fee-paying settings in the area, where staff can know every child individually and class groups remain small. The school is non-denominational and admits both boys and girls as day pupils, with no boarding provision. It is led by headteacher Mr Gary Robinson and is inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A very small independent school in Darlington for families who value an intimate, closely supervised setting over the scale of a larger 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.
