The Grange School
School summary
With just 14 pupils on roll, The Grange School is among the smallest independent schools a family is likely to encounter. This co-educational, non-denominational day school sits in Castleford, Wakefield, and is led by Head Mrs Jennie Allport. A roll of this size points to a highly individual approach, where each child is known well and teaching can be closely tailored. The school is inspected by the ISI, the body that oversees many independent schools.
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
The intimate scale of the school means learning takes place in very small groups, allowing close attention to each pupil's progress. Families considering The Grange should expect a personalised approach rather than the breadth of a large institution.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A genuinely tiny independent school for families who value an individual, closely supported education in Castleford.
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.
