The Nursery, Pre-Prep & Prep School helps all children to believe in themselves and to excel in their own individual way.  The teaching philosophy allows pupils to be individual whilst enabling them to develop and progress at a rate above and beyond their own expectations. Within each year group teachers aim to give children the best possible start to life, both in their academic grounding and in developing their values and beliefs. The school motto is well known by pupils: Be Good. Be Kind. Be Honest. Be the Best You. 

The school is based on two sites within the vibrant city of Brighton; our Nursery & Pre-Prep educates children from Nursery to Year 3, after which they progress on to the Prep site for Years 4 to 8.  Pupils benefit from facilities at the College site, including the Chapel, the new recital hall and the dining facilities.  Sport is played at the Jubilee ground pitches located nearby in the South Downs.

THE  CITY

The College enjoys its location in Brighton, one of Britain’s youngest cities and one of the most vibrant in Europe. 

In 2017, a national survey identified Brighton as the “happiest” city in the UK. It is close to the beautiful South Downs, within easy travelling distance of London (about 50 minutes by train), and about 30 minutes from Gatwick Airport. Portsmouth, Newhaven and the Channel Tunnel provide accessible links with the Continent.

Brighton is also a university city, and the College has good links with both the University of Sussex and Brighton University.
