Roedean is the place to nurture talents and spark curiosity. This is because at Roedean, we believe that education is about far more than just exam results. Roedean provides an all-round, distinctively academic education within a caring and friendly community, where girls not only achieve outstanding academic grades, but also pursue their passions and challenge themselves to try new things within the extensive co-curricular programme on offer.
Roedean offers day and boarding to girls aged 11 to 18, all within an inspiring location on the coast of Brighton, UK. Our site includes a farm and breath-taking sea views. We are close enough to Brighton to take advantage of this dynamic city, but far enough away to enjoy the beauty of our unique cliff-top location at the foot of the South Down National Park. Just 30 minutes from Gatwick and an hour from London, Roedean is accessible to all transport routes.
All girls develop a love for learning and are encouraged at all stages to pursue intellectual challenge. Outstanding examination results (57% A*-A grades at A level and 79% Grades 9-7 at GCSE in 2024) are evidence of the resilience, curiosity and confidence fostered by Roedean’s approach to academics. From those learning new games to elite athletes, Roedean offers fourteen different sports. The school delights in both Visual and Performing Arts and offers over 140 activities as part of the co-curricular programme. Roedean offers a truly inspirational setting where opportunities are endless, and where its holistic educational journey develops, happy, independent, and compassionate young women.
