About

As a founding school of the Girls' Day School Trust, Brighton Girls holds a special place in the history of girls' education. The pioneering spirit of our early founders, celebrated in our four Houses, Grey, Gurney, Lyttelton, and Stanley, remains at the heart of who we are today.

A family of big and little sisters, we are proud to be a unique all-through school in the heart of Brighton, where every student is encouraged to grow into an individual who is kind in character, bold in ambition, and resilient in the face of challenge.

With inspiring teaching, modern learning spaces, and a strong sense of social responsibility, Brighton Girls is a place where girls are free to think deeply, lead confidently, and shape their own future. Academic Achievement at Brighton Girls, we celebrate the achievements that matter most to her.

Our broad and balanced curriculum both stretches and supports each individual, ensuring girls are challenged to achieve their best while developing a genuine love of learning.
