School summary

With just 21 pupils on roll, Stannard School is among the smallest independent schools a family might consider. Based in Dunstable, Central Bedfordshire, it is a mixed school with a religious character rooted in the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church. Pupils join at age 11, and the school is inspected by the ISI. Its intimate scale means a closely knit community where every child is well known to staff.

Where every mark matters.

Places are limited and demand is high, so exam performance is what sets candidates apart. Passmate turns the months ahead into ten focused minutes a day on the exact topics this school tests.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.

Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.

A small, faith-based independent in Dunstable, Stannard School will suit families seeking a close community aligned with the Plymouth Brethren Christian Church.

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.
