Teaching & academics
The ISI's "excellent" rating points to high standards across the school, and the generous staffing ratio gives teachers room to know each child well. Around 9.2 per cent of pupils receive SEN support, suggesting a willingness to work with a range of needs within a closely supervised environment. As a school for ages 4 to 11, much of its work is geared towards preparing children for the next stage of their education.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A small, highly rated London primary where a low ratio means children are genuinely known. Bursary funds, with patrons sympathetic to families in financial difficulty, may help widen access.
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.
