William Morris School
School summary
William Morris School is an exceptionally small independent school in Gloucestershire, with around 27 pupils on roll. A roll of this size means classes are tiny by any measure, allowing pupils to be known individually and taught in a close-knit setting. The school is co-educational and offers boarding alongside day places, and is led by Head Mr Gareth Parker. It is inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate.
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
Entry is at age 11 via an 11+ assessment, the principal admission point. With so few pupils on roll, teaching can be highly personalised, and the intimate scale suits families seeking individual attention rather than the breadth of a large school.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A very small, family-feel independent in Gloucestershire offering both day and boarding places. Best suited to families who value close attention 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.
