Muddy Stilettos came to visit Brighton College Prep School. Here’s what they had to say. . .

An exceptionally impressive, aspirational and enviably-located day school for children aged 3-13 which focuses on developing kind, academically successful and well-rounded pupils to move on to the sought-after destination of Brighton College.

WHAT? WHERE?

Located across two sites right next door to Brighton College, with which it shares some facilities, this pre-prep and prep school in the cosmopolitan heart of Brighton enjoys fabulous views down to the sea. With smart facilities, a hugely dedicated body of staff and an incredibly well-thought-through offering, it’s a real destination school that sets children up for success, but retains a nurturing and wholesome feel. A diverse staff and pupil body reflect its location in one of the UK’s most exciting and progressive cities. In addition to preparing children for the academic rigour of Brighton College (some 95% of pupils go on to study at the prestigious senior school, although children will be prepared for other destinations if it suits them better) the school has a strong focus on pastoral care, pupil wellbeing and cultivating a culture of curiosity and kindness – it’s motto is ‘Be Kind, Be Curious, Be Confident, Be The Best You’.
