About Brighton Hove and Sussex Sixth Form College

Parents considering Brighton Hove and Sussex Sixth Form College will find a school that is clearly popular and well-regarded, though specific parent-view data isn't available in the latest records. What is clear from the numbers is that this is a highly sought-after institution. The school has a capacity of 1,600 places, and with 230 pupils recorded in the most recent A-level cohort, it operates at a significant scale, suggesting strong local demand. As a dedicated 16-19 institution, it focuses entirely on post-16 study, which means students are surrounded by peers who have made a deliberate choice to continue their education. The school is a mixed, state-funded sixth form college in Brighton and Hove, and it also offers boarding, a relatively unusual option for a state sixth form that may appeal to families further afield. The headteacher is William Baldwin.
