Fields Rise School
School summary
With just 16 pupils on roll, Fields Rise School is among the smallest independent schools in Huddersfield, offering an unusually intimate setting where every child is well known to staff. The mixed, non-boarding school is led by headteacher Mrs Vikki-Ann Brownsell and is inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate. Families drawn to small-group teaching and a close-knit community may find this an appealing alternative to larger independents in the Kirklees area.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A genuinely small independent where children are unlikely to be lost in the crowd. Best suited to families who value a personal, close-knit environment over the breadth of a larger school.
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.
