Norton College
School summary
Norton College is a small independent school in Norton, Worcestershire, with around 80 pupils on roll. Its modest size sets the tone: this is a school where children are likely to be known individually rather than as a number in a large cohort. Mixed and non-denominational, it admits pupils from age 11 and is led by headteacher Mr Rodney Goold. Families drawn to an intimate, close-knit setting rather than a large institution will find the scale particularly appealing.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A small, personal independent school for families who value being known over numbers.
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.
