ES Independent School Kirklees
School summary
ES Independent School Kirklees is a notably small independent school, with just 17 pupils on roll. Co-educational and non-boarding, it admits children from age 11 and is led by Mrs Gayle Worswick. The school is inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate. With nearly two-thirds of pupils on SEN support, it appears to suit families seeking a small, closely supervised setting where individual needs can take centre stage.

Teaching & academics
Entry is available at 11 via an 11+ process. The very small roll allows for a high degree of individual attention, which is likely to matter for the significant proportion of pupils receiving SEN support.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A tiny independent school in Kirklees built around close, personal support, with a large share of pupils on SEN provision.
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.
