The best way to experience what life is like at Brighton College is to join us at an Open Morning, where you will have the chance to talk to pupils and teachers about what makes our school such a special place.
A number of fantastic trips, both local and international, complement and enhance our pupils’ learning. The first-hand experience pupils gain on these trips enables them to acquire an invaluable mix of knowledge, skills and understanding across a broad range of subject areas, as well as, ultimately, a wider world perspective.
Here are a few examples of just some of the incredible destinations on offer at the College, with further opportunities to explore a wide range of destinations in the Sixth Form.
