Teaching & academics
Teaching is geared towards GCSE qualifications across the secondary years. The small roll allows for a personal approach in which pupils can be known well by staff. Families considering the school will want to discuss recent results and progress directly, as published attainment figures are very low against national averages.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A genuinely small independent option in Stockton-on-Tees, best suited to families seeking close attention rather than 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.
