About us

Who we are

Roedean is one of the UK’s leading girls’ boarding and day schools. It was founded in 1885 by three sisters. The School opened in Brighton with just 10 pupils but within a decade it had grown to 400. The early pupils were daughters of the professional middle classes and industrialists. Roedean’s foundation was motivated by a commitment to provide girls with access to the full range of academic studies. A high level of academic achievement was expected, motivated by the then ground-breaking view that young women should be given the means to earn a living and, if necessary, support their families. The school list located on a 45-acre campus overlooking the English Channel on the eastern edge of Brighton. Today Roedean is a rich and diverse community with a mix of day girls and boarders. Two thirds of the girls on roll are boarders, with flexi and weekly boarders from Sussex, Kent and London and full boarders from further afield. A proportion of the boarders are international students from a range of different countries. This mix of local, London and UK girls with a diverse international community gives Roedean a very special and dynamic atmosphere.
