Academic support
Every student known. Every student supported.
At BMS, we recognise that every student learns differently.
Our specialist Academic Support team works closely with students, families and teachers to provide personalised support that enables every young person to access the curriculum, build confidence and achieve their potential.
Supporting every student
Support may include one-to-one guidance, small group interventions, specialist teaching and classroom strategies tailored to individual needs. Integrated into everyday school life, Academic Support helps ensure students receive the right help at the right time, enabling them to make meaningful progress and participate fully in the opportunities BMS has to offer.
The quality of this provision was recognised by the Independent Schools Inspectorate, which noted that students with SEND “achieve well because of the targeted support they receive” and that staff are “well trained in strategies to adapt their teaching to the needs of their pupils”.
(ISI, September 2025).
“The academic support team have been a constant source of support to our family. Their professionalism, compassion, judgement and unwavering commitment to the students in their care have been extraordinary.”

Potential has no limits
Just as importantly, students know they are understood, valued and supported. Academic Support provides a welcoming environment where confidence can grow, challenges can be overcome and success can be defined by progress as well as outcomes.
Because at BMS, potential is not defined by a starting point. It is defined by what can be achieved with the right encouragement, expertise and belief.
