We are thrilled that our partner school, the London Academy of Excellence in Stratford, has been named one of three finalists for a World’s Best School Prize in the ‘Supporting Healthy Lives’ category! They are the only school in England to be shortlisted in any of the categories, and we’re encouraging everyone to vote for them and show their support: bit.ly/LAE2022. 

Brighton College helped found the LAE in 2012. We’ve had a strong, ongoing partnership ever since – including a buddy programme in which 80 pupils from Brighton House at the LAE are paired with 80 Upper Sixth pupils at Brighton College to work together to develop leadership skills and grow friendships over the course of the year. The LAE was named Sixth Form College of the Year by The Sunday Times in 2017, and is consistently the highest performing mainstream state Sixth Form in the country. Congratulations to everyone – an outstanding achievement for an outstanding school.
