Progress School
School summary
Progress School is an independent, fee-paying school in Preston, Lancashire, and one of the smallest settings a family might consider, with around 12 pupils on roll. That scale places it firmly at the intimate end of the spectrum, where every child is well known to staff. It admits pupils from age 11 and offers entry at the 11+ stage. Families drawn to a close-knit environment rather than a large institution will find this an unusual but distinctive option.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A genuinely tiny independent school in Preston, suited to families who value individual attention over the buzz of a large cohort.
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.
