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.
We are also within walking distance of the South Downs countryside and the famous Brighton Palace Pier. Our pupils have the unique opportunity to explore the vibrant city life and the surrounding area's natural beauty, providing a well-rounded educational experience.
Our coastal location allows pupils to enjoy a wide range of learning experiences. Children are encouraged to explore the natural resources on our doorstep and are inspired to develop a deep love of outdoor learning.
Blue spaces, such as the sea, improve mental health and overall wellbeing, especially when combined with physical activity. Our Beach School is an integral part of our curriculum from Nursery to Year 6. It is the setting for yoga, breathwork, watercolour painting, palaeontology, beach volleyball, and marine biology lessons.
