Huckleberry Therapeutic School
School summary
With just 14 pupils on roll, Huckleberry Therapeutic School is among the smallest independent settings in Oxfordshire. The mixed, non-denominational school operates on a deliberately intimate scale, where the very low number of children allows for close, individual attention. It is led by headteacher Mrs Deborah Ball and inspected by the ISI. The day-school model means no boarding provision.

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
As an ISI-inspected independent school, Huckleberry sits outside the state inspection framework. With a roll of around 14, teaching can be tailored closely to each pupil, an approach that suits children who benefit from a small, supportive environment rather than a large classroom.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A genuinely small, therapeutically minded independent in Oxfordshire, best suited to families seeking close individual support 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.
