Teaching & academics
With a roll of roughly ten pupils, teaching here is necessarily close and personalised. Such a small setting allows staff to tailor learning to each child, though families should approach the school directly for detail on curriculum and outcomes.

Watch Passmate decide how to teach.
Answer as a child would. Left: what they see. Right: what it learns about them.
A very small independent school in Birmingham where the scale promises highly individual attention. Families wanting specifics will need to speak to the school directly.
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.
