Located in the vibrant city of Brighton on England's south coast, Brighton College Sixth Form offers an exceptional environment for pupils joining us from within the College and beyond. Outstanding teaching is complemented by an extraordinary breadth of opportunities in sport, music, drama, the creative arts and leadership, enabling every pupil to discover and develop their passions.
Guided by our values of kindness, innovation and a love of learning, we encourage every pupil to think independently, embrace new challenges and grow in confidence. Over two transformative years, our Sixth Form prepares young people not only for success at the world's leading universities, but also to make a positive difference in the world beyond Brighton College.
Our Sixth Form combines academic excellence with exceptional pastoral care in an environment where every pupil is encouraged to think independently, embrace new opportunities and prepare for life beyond school.
With outstanding facilities, inspiring teaching and an extensive range of opportunities beyond lessons, pupils thrive both inside and outside the classroom. Set in the vibrant city of Brighton, just moments from the sea, our Sixth Form offers the ideal setting for two exciting and transformative years.
"The Sixth Form is the pinnacle of your school career – a transformative two-year period in which you set the direction for your future study and future self." – Alex Granville, Head of Sixth Form
Our Sixth Form pupils are taught by subject specialists who inspire intellectual curiosity, encourage independent thinking and prepare them for success in their A-levels, at university and beyond. In our purpose-built learning spaces, pupils are challenged to explore ideas in greater depth, develop confidence in their own thinking and cultivate a lifelong love of learning.
Life in the Sixth Form extends far beyond the classroom. From sport and performing arts to leadership, societies and volunteering, pupils have over 100 activities to choose from, with dedicated time each week to explore new interests and pursue existing passions. Educational trips in the UK and abroad further enrich their learning, building confidence, broadening horizons and creating experiences that stay with them long after they leave Brighton College.
Our Sixth Form boarding community is a welcoming home away from home for full and weekly boarders. Exceptional facilities, expert pastoral care and a varied programme of clubs, activities and social events ensure pupils feel supported, connected and able to make the most of every aspect of Sixth Form life.
Brighton College Sixth Form is consistently the top co-educational school in England. Over the past five years, our A-level results have placed us in the top 1% of schools in England, and our pupils go on to the best universities – including Oxford, Cambridge, Russell Group and the top 30 global universities.
