Westbourne School
School summary
With roughly 90 pupils on roll, Westbourne School is a notably small independent in Sutton-in-Ashfield, Nottinghamshire. Its size sits at the more intimate end of the independent sector, the sort of setting where pupils are known as individuals rather than numbers. The school is non-denominational and admits pupils from age 11, with entry at the 11+ stage. Families drawn to a close-knit, fee-paying environment in the East Midlands may find it worth a closer look.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A small, non-denominational independent for families who value a personal, closely supervised setting over scale.
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.
