Pathways Education
School summary
Pathways Education is an unusually small independent school in Farnham, Surrey, with around 12 pupils on roll. A setting of this size allows for a highly individual approach, where teaching can be closely tailored to each child and pupils are known thoroughly by staff. Led by headteacher Mr Michael Vincent, the school is inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate and admits boys and girls from age 11. It is a day school, with no boarding provision.

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
With so few pupils, learning at Pathways Education is necessarily individualised, offering close attention that larger schools cannot easily match. Entry is available at age 11, including through an 11+ route. The very small roll suggests a setting better suited to families seeking a personal, supportive environment than to those wanting the breadth of a large school.

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 Farnham for families who value close, personalised attention 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.
