Brighton College is delighted to have received an unprecedented three accolades in The Sunday Times Parent Power Schools Guide: UK Boarding School of the Year 2025, Top School of the Year for A-levels 2025 and Top Academic School in South East England 2025.
The Sunday Times rankings also place Brighton College as the Top Co-Educational School in the UK.
Our Prep School creates a nurturing and supportive environment where pupils can flourish academically, socially and emotionally. Our experienced teachers are committed to providing a well-rounded education that fosters a love for learning, critical thinking and personal growth.
Our culture of kindness permeates everything we do at Brighton College. We place great emphasis on mutual respect and kindness to others, so that every child feels valued for who they are.
Our pupils know there is a whole world beyond the classroom, and we encourage them to remember they are a part of society, not apart from it. Through a wide variety of community projects, our pupils learn the importance of giving back and making a difference in the world.
Our spaces provide dynamic learning environments for pupils to engage with their subjects. In addition to our own beautiful spaces, we also use the incredible facilities at the senior school.
Situated on the south coast of England, we enjoy being part of the city of Brighton, and are also within sight of the sea and walking distance of the South Downs countryside. This allows our pupils to enjoy the best of all worlds – the beach, the countryside and the best of Brighton & Hove.
Upon leaving our Prep School, the vast majority of our pupils move on to Year 9 at Brighton College, where they continue their exceptional educational journey. Our pupils flourish and thrive, building on the strong foundation that we have laid.
Brighton College Prep School has the following aims:
- To develop a lifelong attitude of kindness in all aspects of their life, to live with integrity and create an understanding of how to enhance their wellbeing and that of others.
- To inspire a love of learning through an innovative and challenging skills-based curriculum which encourages curiosity and enquiry about the changing world.
- To enthuse children with the confidence and desire to go beyond their own learning potential in academic and co-curricular areas of school life.
- To promote an appreciation of spiritual development whilst respecting and celebrating the diversity in others regardless of gender, religion, culture, sexuality, ethnic and social background whilst gaining an understanding of fundamental British values.
- To provide opportunities for children to build and maintain positive and healthy relationships and to understand the importance of contributing to their local and global communities in a meaningful way.
- To create positive working partnerships with parents for the good of the child to enable them to become the best versions of themselves.
