Kestrel House School
School summary
Kestrel House School is an independent, mixed school in Haringey, north London, and one of the smaller settings a family might consider, with around 37 pupils on roll. That intimate scale tends to suit children who flourish with close attention and a steady, familiar environment rather than the bustle of a large institution. The school is inspected by the ISI and is led by headteacher Ms Lorna Bailey. It has no religious character.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A small, non-denominational independent in Haringey for families who value a close-knit setting 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.
