The Rowan School
School summary
With just 31 pupils on roll, The Rowan School is among the smallest independent schools a family might consider in Dudley, West Midlands. This mixed, non-denominational school is fee-paying and inspected by the ISI rather than Ofsted. Its size means classes are necessarily intimate, and the school is led by Mrs Snita Verma. Families drawn to a close-knit setting over the scale of a larger institution may find the environment well suited to them.

Teaching & academics
The Rowan School is overseen by the Independent Schools Inspectorate, the body that inspects fee-paying schools of this kind. With such a small roll, pupils are likely to receive a high degree of individual attention.

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. The Rowan School suits families who value a personal, intimate setting over size.
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.
