Kingswood Preparatory School
School summary
A co-educational prep school in Bath, Kingswood draws on a foundation that opened in 1995 and now educates around 332 children from the ages of three to eleven. Its small size and pupil-to-teacher ratio of roughly 18 allow for a closely supportive environment, and the Independent Schools Inspectorate rated the school 'excellent' for both education and personal development. Notably, just over a fifth of pupils receive some form of SEN support, suggesting a school accustomed to meeting a range of learning needs. With no religious character and no boarding, it functions as a day school for local families.

Teaching & academics
The ISI's top 'excellent' rating across the board points to consistently strong teaching and pastoral care. Entry at 11+ is offered, providing a natural route on from the early and primary years. The relatively generous staffing ratio supports individual attention, and the sizeable proportion of pupils on SEN support indicates real investment in helping children of differing abilities to progress.

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.
