Eton Dorney Independent Therapeutic School
School summary
With just 39 pupils on its roll, Eton Dorney Independent Therapeutic School is a notably small, independent day school in Buckinghamshire. Its therapeutic focus and intimate scale set it apart from larger independents, allowing staff to know each child individually. The school is mixed and non-denominational, taking pupils from age 11. Families seeking a closely supported, small-group environment rather than a large institutional setting may find it worth a closer look.
Where every mark matters.
Places are limited and demand is high, so exam performance is what sets candidates apart. Passmate turns the months ahead into ten focused minutes a day on the exact topics this school tests.

Teaching & academics
Entry is possible at age 11, and the school is inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI) rather than Ofsted. Its small size means teaching can be tailored to individual pupils within a therapeutic framework.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A very small, therapeutically-focused independent in Buckinghamshire, led by Head Mr James Lynch, for families wanting individual attention over 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.
