School summary
Stafford Grammar School is a small co-educational independent school in Staffordshire, taking pupils from age 4 right through to 18. With around 381 pupils on roll, it offers an intimate setting where children are likely to be known as individuals rather than faces in a crowd. The Independent Schools Inspectorate awarded the school its highest grade of "excellent", and judged personal development to the same standard. There is no religious affiliation and no boarding, so the school suits local families seeking a non-denominational day education with a continuous path from the early years to the sixth form.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A small, non-selective-feeling independent with top inspection marks across academics and personal development. Well suited to families wanting a close-knit day school that carries children from infancy to A-level.
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.
