The Fountain School
School summary
With roughly 35 pupils on roll, The Fountain School is a notably small independent school in Bradford, where a tight community and close attention to each child come as standard rather than as an aspiration. The mixed, non-denominational setting takes pupils from the age of 11 and is led by headteacher Mrs Abeer Niehad. Families drawn to an intimate environment over the bustle of a larger institution will find much to consider here.

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
Entry is at age 11, with an 11+ assessment forming part of the admissions process. As an independent school inspected by the ISI rather than Ofsted, it operates within the independent sector's regulatory framework. The small roll means teaching can be closely tailored to individual pupils.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A small, fee-paying Bradford school for families who value a close-knit, personal setting from age 11.
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.
