Brighton Girls couldn’t be anywhere other than at the heart of vibrant, open, forward-facing Brighton. We’re a dynamic, creative, friendly school where girls are confident, passionate and kind – not only ambitious for themselves, but for society.
Girls first
As a founder of the Girls’ Day School Trust, we’ve championed girls’ education since it was in its infancy. We understand what makes girls tick and how to help them become all they can be. We do this by focusing on the joy of learning and on instilling curiosity, adventure and independence. All in a girls-only environment that’s reassuring yet always stimulating, giving students the confidence and motivation to shine.
Girls are nurtured but also encouraged to try new challenges which encourages their confidence and self esteem.

Brighton Girls instills an innate sense of confidence - that as young women they are capable of achieving anything they set their minds to.

Community
We also have a strong sense of community and collective endeavour. Teachers are passionate about their subjects and draw the best from girls, as shown in our results. We combine this with sport, academic enrichment and other extra-curricular activities to develop knowledge, interests, emotional intelligence and teamwork.
Our Aims
At Brighton Girls, we strive to create an environment where students:
- Are fully supported in every endeavour
- Feel free to shine academically and socially
- Are able to discover and develop their own character, strengths and interests, yet also value collective endeavour
- Have a strong sense of community and the responsibilities and opportunities this involves
- Have the confidence to go beyond what they think they can achieve
- Without exception, feel they are nurtured and belong
- Will look back at their school years with happiness
- Learn to be resilient and positive
- Leave school fully equipped to succeed in life
Our vision is of generations of Brighton Girls with the ability to lead and make a real difference in the world and who are both bold and kind.
Dance
We are very proud of our on-going collaboration with Penny & Jules Youth Dance which was launched in 2014. PJYD works with young dancers (aged 14 to 19) from all around the South East.
Our students have successfully auditioned and featured in performances at Brighton Fringe, National U.Dance Festival, HOSTED at The Old Market in Hove and many more.
Girls are nurtured but also encouraged to try new challenges which encourages their confidence and self esteem.
