Ormston School
School summary
With just 21 pupils on roll, Ormston School is among the smallest independent schools a family might consider in Leeds. Its size places it firmly at the intimate end of the spectrum, where teaching is likely to take place in very small groups and pupils are known individually. The co-educational school admits children from age 11 and is inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate. Families drawn to a closely held, personal environment rather than a large institution will find this setting distinctive.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A genuinely small independent school in Leeds, best suited to families who value an intimate, individually focused setting 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.
