Overview

The school was founded in 1885 as Wimbledon House by three sisters: Penelope, Millicent, and Dorothy Lawrence. The campus is situated near the Sussex Downs on a cliff overlooking Brighton Marina. The school incorporates a 320-seat theatre, a heated indoor swimming pool and a chapel, as well as a range of workshops, studios, laboratories and sports pitches. The Good Schools Guide stated that the "School has a healthy spirit and much to offer." The school community is divided into houses. Roedean aims to provide a stimulating education and exciting extra-curricular opportunities in an environment which is supportive and friendly.The pupils are encouraged to be self-reliant, explore their talents and strive for excellence.

Unique Points

Sixth Form entry is very competitive, and requires at least 55 points in GCSE or equivalent where A*=8, A=7 etc. and, ideally, a grade A in the subjects (or related subjects) that the candidate proposes to take at AS/A level. Applications are also assessed on the basis of the school's Sixth Form entrance examinations in English and Mathematics, together with either a verbal reasoning test or a non-verbal reasoning test.

Entry Requirements

Most applicants take our own entrance exams (Maths, English and Non-Verbal Reasoning) at Roedean (UK applicants) or locally (international applicants). At interview the Headmaster and Tutor for the year group will discuss the motivation for applying, subject interests and what the applicant can bring to the school. We will issue an unconditional or conditional offer (upon achieving a certain maths or English result) as soon as possible after the interview.
