A skills-based assessment model, refined over more than a decade, that develops and celebrates everything a child needs to flourish — and prepares them for a confident start at senior school.

The PSB is a programme of study that actively develops and tracks knowledge, skills and attitudes — preparing children academically, personally, socially, culturally and spiritually for the challenges of life as young adults.
With exit points at 11+ and 13+, it gives schools a richer, more complete record of achievement than results alone — recognised by senior schools alongside their own entrance assessments.
Develop flexible, adaptable intelligence — and bridge the skills gap a content-based curriculum can leave behind.
Promote excellent communication and a genuine love of learning that challenges pupils' perceptions of school.
Ensure collaboration and teamwork sit at the heart of learning, fostering application in every individual.
Draw on the experience of fellow PSB schools and teachers, plus dedicated support from our LST Consultants and Director of Schools.
Annual subject meetings, online twilight sessions exploring pedagogy and best practice, an online bank of shared resources, and conferences designed to connect schools and share effective practice.
Attendance at our annual conference and discounted training with partners — keeping teaching fresh and forward-looking.
Our Director of Schools, Gregg Davies, is happy to talk through what membership could look like for your school. Get in touch and we'll arrange a conversation.
