Teaching & academics
Pupils join at age 11 through an 11+ entry process and work towards GCSE qualifications. The sixth form is very small indeed, with just three pupils, so families considering study beyond GCSE should explore the options carefully. The compact roll lends itself to a high degree of personal support across the curriculum.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A genuinely small, personal independent school for families who value close attention and an individual approach 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.
