St David's Prep
School summary
A small independent prep in West Wickham, St David's takes children from nursery age right through to eleven, with around 207 pupils on roll. Its intimate size means each child is well known to staff, and the school's co-educational, non-denominational character keeps the doors open to families of all backgrounds. The Independent Schools Inspectorate awarded it its highest grade of 'excellent', a judgement that reflects both academic standards and the wider experience of pupils. Mrs Julia Foulger leads the school as Head.

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.
