Hera House
School summary
With just 34 pupils, Hera House is among the smallest of independent schools, offering a notably intimate setting in Appleby, North Lincolnshire. Its size means classes are necessarily tiny, allowing close attention to each child and a strong sense of community. As a mixed, day school, it draws families seeking a personal, small-scale alternative to larger institutions.

Teaching & academics
As an independent school inspected by the ISI rather than Ofsted, Hera House operates outside the state framework. With a roll of around 34, teaching takes place in very small groups, which can suit children who thrive on individual attention.

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 for families who value a close-knit, personal environment over the scale 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.
