Westminster Tutors
School summary
Founded in 1934, Westminster Tutors is a small independent school in the heart of Kensington and Chelsea, with just 34 pupils, all of them in the sixth form. The most striking feature is the pupil-to-teacher ratio of roughly one to one, which makes this closer to individual tuition than to a conventional classroom setting. Led by Principal Sean Doherty and inspected by the ISI, it offers a highly personalised route through A-levels for a tightly focused group of older students.

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
Teaching is built entirely around A-levels, with results showing 36% of entries graded A*-A and 61% reaching A*-B. The near one-to-one staffing means lessons can be closely tailored to each individual, an approach that suits students who thrive with concentrated attention rather than a large peer group.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A boutique sixth-form college where the scale is the point: tiny numbers and an almost personal tutor for every pupil.
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.
