School summary

With just 18 pupils on roll, The Eaves Learning Centre is among the smallest independent schools in Wiltshire, offering a deliberately intimate alternative to larger mainstream settings. Based in Westbury and led by headteacher Mrs Claire Speller, this mixed, non-denominational day school admits pupils from age 11. Its scale points to a highly personal approach, where individual attention is built into daily life rather than promised in passing. Families drawn to small-group teaching and close support are likely to find the environment appealing.

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.

Teaching & academics

As a small independent school inspected by the ISI, The Eaves Learning Centre teaches in an unusually low-pressure, low-ratio setting. The 11+ entry point at age 11 marks the start of the journey here, and the limited roll means teaching can be closely tailored to each pupil.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.

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

A very small, mixed independent school in Westbury for families who value close attention over crowds.

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.
