Sporting Stars Academy
School summary
With just 77 pupils on its roll, Sporting Stars Academy is a notably small independent school in Stoke-on-Trent. The intimate scale means staff can know every child well, an appealing prospect for families who want close attention rather than the bustle of a large institution. The school is co-educational and non-denominational, and is led by Head Mrs Katie Jackson. As a fee-paying school inspected by the ISI, it sits firmly within the independent sector.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A small, independent school in Stoke-on-Trent for families who value a close-knit setting and GCSE study on an intimate 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.
