Spring Valley School
School summary
Spring Valley School is a notably small independent school in Breaston, Derbyshire, with around ten pupils on roll. Its size places it among the smallest of settings, where teaching is necessarily intimate and individual attention is built into daily life. The school is co-educational, takes pupils from age 11, and offers boarding alongside day places. It is inspected by the ISI and led by Head Mr Dina Chhabra.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A tiny independent school for families who want highly personal attention and the option of boarding.
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.
