The College was founded by the Seventh Duke of Devonshire and other prominent Eastbourne citizens in 1867. For a hundred years, as a school for boys, it was proud to educate, amongst many successful old pupils, two VCs, a Nobel prize-winner, a President of the Royal Academy, and a Lord Mayor of London. In 1969 it was one of the first HMC schools to welcome girls into the Sixth Form. Now girls of all ages make up over 40% of the school.
Some significant events in the College history are illustrated in the College time line. Preserving records of the history of the College is important, and the College archives are preserved by two part-time archivists.
The seaside town of Eastbourne is an ideal location for a boarding school offering a wide range of attractions. The College is situated both by the sea and as a part of the centre of the town of Eastbourne.
The college chapel was built in 1870 and today plays an important part in the community. There is a full time chaplain and also an assistant chaplain, who play significant parts in the both the teaching and pastoral roles of school life. The choir has a serious musical reputation and sings regularly, not only at chapel services but also annually at Chichester and Winchester cathedrals.Further information on Public Schools »
