Entry is at age 11, with an 11+ assessment forming part of the admissions process. The school is inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI) rather than Ofsted, reflecting its independent status. Parents weighing recent attainment data alongside the wider offering will want to discuss results directly with the school.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A small, Christian independent school in Harrogate offering day and boarding from age 11, led by Head Mr James Savile.
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.
