About Us
Roedean was founded in 1885 by three sisters aiming to provide young women with an outstanding holistic education, in order to realise their potential, build their independence, and empower them to make their mark in the world. Roedean Sixth Form can be tailored to suit you, and is both a challenging and rewarding experience. Inspiring A Level teaching, high-quality UCAS guidance and co-curricular opportunities all contribute towards creating happy, intellectually curious and confident Sixth Formers.

Girls can also take part in a range of activities and trips at the weekend, including London theatres and more local attractions. Socials take place throughout the year, including the Snow Ball.
