Mapesbury School
School summary
Mapesbury School is one of the smaller independent schools in Brent, with around 71 pupils on roll. Its intimate size means classes are kept small and individual pupils are easily known by staff, an appeal for families who prefer a close-knit environment over a large institution. Mixed and non-boarding, it admits pupils at age 11 and is led by headteacher Tamaryn Yartu. The school is inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A small, selective London independent for families who value a personal scale of schooling. Worth a look if an intimate setting matters more than size.
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.
