Snowhill School
School summary
With just 53 pupils on roll, Snowhill School is among the smallest independent options a family might consider, offering a notably intimate environment in Stoke-on-Trent. The co-educational school takes pupils from age 11 and prepares them through to GCSE, with entry at 11 assessed via an 11+ process. It is non-denominational and operates as a day school, with no boarding provision. The school is inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate and is led by Head Mrs Sarah Gould.

Teaching & academics
Pupils follow a GCSE pathway, and the school's small scale means teaching takes place in very small groups. Reported attainment figures sit well below national averages, which is an important consideration for families weighing up the school. Parents will want to discuss recent results and individual progress directly with the school.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A small, independent day school for families who value a close-knit setting over scale. Prospective parents should look carefully at attainment data alongside a visit.
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.
