Gateshead Jewish Boarding School
School summary
A small independent boarding school for boys in Gateshead, Gateshead Jewish Boarding School educates around 141 pupils and is led by Head Rabbi N Wolinsky. With boarding at its heart, it offers a close-knit residential community rather than the scale of a larger day school.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A small boys' boarding school with a distinctive religious community at its core, best suited to families who want that residential, faith-centred experience.
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.
