PRINCIPAL AND GROUP CEO'S WELCOME

The success of every Brighton College school is built on the dedication, expertise and kindness of its people. Whether in the classroom or supporting our schools in another capacity, every colleague makes an invaluable contribution to the exceptional education we provide for our pupils.

At Brighton College, we believe that outstanding teachers inspire a lifelong love of learning. We are therefore committed to attracting and supporting colleagues who share our passion for education, who are experts in their field, and who want to make a genuine difference to the lives of young people.

As a growing international family of schools, Brighton College offers opportunities to learn from exceptional colleagues, experience different cultures and develop professionally within a supportive international community. Many colleagues build rewarding long-term careers with us, moving between our schools and enriching both their own practice and the lives of the pupils and colleagues around them.

If you share our passion for education and our values of curiosity, confidence and kindness, I hope you will explore the opportunities on this website and consider becoming part of the Brighton College family.

WHO WE ARE

Brighton College seeks to impart or provide:

  • a love of learning for its own sake;
  • a foundation of knowledge and body of skills with which to understand and question the world we live in and to prepare us, through an innovative approach to education, for the world we are likely to inhabit in the future;
  • an awareness of, and appreciation of, the spiritual dimension in our lives;
  • an enthusiasm for the world beyond the classroom – in particular, sport, music and the performing arts;
  • a respect for difference in others and a recognition that the efforts and achievements of every individual in our community are valued equally;
  • an awareness of the needs of others, and a firm belief that – whatever our age – we can make a difference, locally and globally, right now

In short, we strive to turn out well-educated, tolerant and intellectually curious young adults who are ready to take a full, active and positive role in the life of our country and of our world.
