Roedean provides a 'whole life' education. The basic philosophy of the school is to offer every girl the opportunity to develop her full potential in a setting that provides for intellectual, physical, social, personal and moral growth. The school is particularly strong academically and has always had a reputation for high standards which is borne out year after year by excellent examinations results.
The full boarding situation is ideally suited to carry out the school's 'whole life' philosophy by providing a rich and balanced programme of learning and activities in a context which is structured yet informal. The single sex environment has particular advantages for girls; it prevents stereotyping, raises expectations and develops self confidence by offering many opportunities for leadership and responsibility.
Our on-going Development Plan ensures we have the facilities necessary to support our educational aims. Recent developments include a fully equipped Theatre and Performing Arts Complex, Design and Technology Centre, Humanities Centre, six Science Laboratories, multi-media Languages Centre and Business Education Suite.
We have a strong Sixth Form and offer a limited number of places for day girls who can benefit from an individually tailored programme of A and AS Levels, plus our full range of extra-curricular activities and social events. A small number of day places are now available in every year group.
