Brighton College - Additional Information

Additional Information

The school is unique among English public schools in having a Greek motto: ΤΟ Δ’ΕΥ ΝΙΚΑΤΩ. From Aeschylus' Agamemnon, it means "Let Right Prevail".

The chapel is unusual amongst British school chapels because George Bell, Bishop of Chichester created the school grounds as an extra-parochial ecclesiastical district. Placed outside the parish of St. Matthew's, Brighton, the school chapel holds an episcopal licence to perform weddings for its residents, after banns; no archiepiscopal licence is required.

Current fees stand at circa £29,000 p.a. for full time boarders and circa £17,000 p.a. for day pupils in sixth form.

Famous quotes containing the words additional and/or information:

    Don’t you think I’ve had enough excitement for one evening, without the additional thrill of a strange man making love to me?
    John L. Balderston (1899–1954)

    The information links are like nerves that pervade and help to animate the human organism. The sensors and monitors are analogous to the human senses that put us in touch with the world. Data bases correspond to memory; the information processors perform the function of human reasoning and comprehension. Once the postmodern infrastructure is reasonably integrated, it will greatly exceed human intelligence in reach, acuity, capacity, and precision.
    Albert Borgman, U.S. educator, author. Crossing the Postmodern Divide, ch. 4, University of Chicago Press (1992)
