Teaching & academics
Teaching is geared towards GCSE qualifications, the standard route through the secondary years. With so few pupils, the academic experience is necessarily intimate, allowing teaching to be tailored closely to individual needs. Families considering The Bridge may wish to ask how its small numbers shape subject choice at GCSE.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A genuinely small, mixed independent in Havering offering 11+ entry and a GCSE pathway. It will suit families seeking a close-knit setting over the bustle 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.
