Eastbourne College Reviews
5 (2 reviews)
My son is super happy. Nurturing, great teachers and lovely environment. Grah sports provision and extracurricular activities.
While it may not be socially acceptable to say, I was a private school parent who sent his children to this school to get them the right education. There is a slightly different feel here than a state school but underpinning that is strong discipline, high standards and a healthy sense of competition. The outcome - children got into university of preference and both now have high paid careers.
