The best way to experience what life is like at Brighton College is to join us at an Open Morning, where you will have the chance to talk to pupils and teachers about what makes our school such a special place.
We were delighted to learn at the beginning of the term that Mr Cairns was shortlisted for UK Social Mobility Champion of the Year in the national SOMO (Social Mobility) Awards.
He was nominated alongside highly influential organisations, including the top law firms in the UK and even the Ministry of Defence, and we were very proud to hear that Mr Cairns won a silver award at the awards ceremony in October.
The awards recognise businesses, schools and individuals who work for the betterment of society, and the prestigious nomination is for Mr Cairns’ leadership in a number of areas. This includes co-founding the hugely successful London Academy of Excellence for disadvantaged but aspirational young people, establishing the Let Right Prevail scheme offering full scholarships at Brighton for twenty Ukrainian refugees, and his introduction of the Opening Doors initiative for disadvantaged children on the South Coast.
