School summary
More House School in Farnham, Surrey, takes a distinctive approach within the independent sector: with more than a quarter of its 509 boys receiving SEN support, it is a school built around pupils who learn differently. Founded in 1939 with a Catholic character, it admits boys from age 11 and offers both day and boarding places. The roll places it in the medium-size band, and its sixth form is comparatively small at 79 pupils. The model suits families seeking structured, well-supported education in a single-sex setting.
Where every mark matters.
Places are limited and demand is high, so exam performance is what sets candidates apart. Passmate turns the months ahead into ten focused minutes a day on the exact topics this school tests.

Teaching & academics
Pupils work towards GCSEs alongside vocational BTEC qualifications, a combination that gives boys more than one route through their studies. With SEN support reaching close to 28 per cent of the roll, the curriculum is clearly geared towards individual needs rather than a one-size-fits-all path. The school is inspected by the ISI.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A Catholic boys' school where high levels of learning support are central, not an afterthought. Families weighing day fees of up to around £31,000 will want to see how that tailored approach fits their son.
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.
