Teaseldown School
School summary
Teaseldown School is an independent school in Halstead, Essex, distinguished above all by its scale: with around 22 pupils on roll, it sits firmly within the smallest band of schools. This is a co-educational, non-denominational setting where the intimate numbers allow staff to know each child individually. Led by headteacher Ms Jodie Evans, it is inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate. Families drawn to a close-knit, personal environment rather than a large institution will find much to consider here.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A genuinely small independent school where every pupil is known by name. Best suited to families who value personal attention over the scale of a larger school.
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.
