Teaching & academics
The school's "excellent" ISI outcome speaks to consistently strong teaching and learning across the primary years. With places only to age 11, the focus falls squarely on preparing girls for the senior school transition, including 11+ entry. The intimate roll of fewer than 300 pupils allows close attention to each girl's progress.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A long-established, deliberately small girls' prep with top inspection marks; families should note fees of up to £26,112 a year and the absence of bursary support.
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.
