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.
