About the Brighton College Prep School

Brighton College Prep School is a preparatory school for the famous Brighton College, founded in 1845. Located in the prestigious area of Brighton, the school occupies a separate campus with modern infrastructure, specifically designed for younger children. The school is part of the Brighton College Family, which has been recognized as "School of the Year" in the UK by The Sunday Times multiple times. Its proximity to the main campus of Brighton College allows for shared resources and a smooth transition for students to the senior school. The educational philosophy of the school is based on the principles of fostering curiosity, developing individual talents, and creating a strong academic foundation. A unique feature is the "Discovery Learning" program, which encourages an investigative approach and the development of critical thinking through practical projects and experiments. The school utilizes innovative teaching methods, including the "flipped classroom" technology and interdisciplinary projects. Special attention is given to developing social skills and emotional intelligence through a mentoring system and a variety of extracurricular activities. The main goals of Brighton College Prep School include preparing students for successful entry into Brighton College and other leading independent schools, building self-confidence, and nurturing well-rounded individuals. The school is known for its friendly and supportive atmosphere, where each child receives individual attention and the opportunity to fulfill their potential.

I heard about Brighton from my classmate, who also studied there in the summer, so I wanted to go there.  Probably, I would like to live in such a city. We had a lot of excursions to other cities, in particular to London, and it was very nice to return from the noisy, fast capital to Brighton:)) This is also a big city, the main resort in England, but here everything is different, more measured and comfortable. There is a very beautiful promenade, not to go for a walk: there are more active pieces, where there are rides, shops, all in restaurants, and there are more deserted ones where you can walk, look at the sea and feed the seagulls. The prices in the cafe are not very low, but try something from seafood - very tasty. I also liked the college: clean, reasonably spacious (but not such a huge city, where you can get your own buses and get lost). Of course, everything is electronic and is done on computers, we seldom get books (maximum workbooks). There were few Englishmen on the course, mostly foreign students from Europe, many from Germany.
