The sea inspires us. Endless horizons reflect the potential for all our pupils, the limitlessness of their aspiration. As the ‘blue health school’ we harness our coastal location to the benefit of our children’s physical and mental wellbeing.
Enjoying the outdoors is part of our commitment to the whole of learning: a balance between cultural engagement, schoolwork and sport and enjoying the company of friends.
Eastbourne College has a tradition of innovation, enthusiastically leading UK education in the direction of balanced co-education, equally cherishing our boarders and day pupils, aiming for what we are proud to call healthy learning for the long term.
The academic results achieved by boys and girls at Eastbourne are consistently very strong and higher than many more selective schools. We recruit children of a wide ability range, confident that we can challenge and develop all those who come to the College. Because our programme is tailored to the skills and aspirations of each individual, we can provide stretch for every pupil. We celebrate the success of all our pupils, whichever university destination or career choice they make.
