Founded in 1885, the school moved to its present site in 1898. It has a splendid position above the cliffs and overlooking the sea, between Brighton and Rottingdean. It is a purpose-built school with attractive and very well-equipped buildings on a large estate of which about 40 acres are given to playing fields and leisure activities. One of the most distinguished schools in Britain, it is well run and its large and well-qualified staff permits a staff:pupil ratio of about 1:7. Standards are very high and examination results excellent. Sixth formers can work on undergraduate mathematics modules at Sussex University. Great emphasis is placed on careers advice and the teaching of leadership skills. Extremely strong in art, music, drama and performing arts and virtually all pupils are involved. A wide range of games and sports is available and high standards are achieved. There is a high commitment to local community services. The school has an outstanding record in the Duke of Edinburgh's Award Scheme and the Young Enterprise Business Scheme.
