Redstone Academy for Boys
School summary
Redstone Academy for Boys is one of Birmingham's smaller independent schools, educating just 114 boys. Its intimate scale means pupils are unlikely to be lost in a crowd, and staff can come to know each boy as an individual. As a non-denominational school taking boys from age 11, it offers a focused, GCSE-led education led by headteacher Mr Saadat Rasool. Families seeking a close-knit, boys-only environment in the city may find the modest size particularly appealing.

Teaching & academics
The academic programme is built around GCSE qualifications, giving boys a clear route through their secondary years. With so few pupils on roll, class sizes are likely to be small, allowing for close attention to individual progress. The school is inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A small, boys-only independent school in the heart of Birmingham, Redstone offers a personal scale that larger schools cannot match.
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.
